No results found.This monograph was also published in: Residue Evaluation of Certain Veterinary Drugs. Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), 81st meeting 2015. FAO JECFA Monographs 18.Diflubenzuron (CAS No. 35367-38-5), besides its use in agriculture, horticulture and forestry against larvae of Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Hymenoptera, and in public health against larvae of mosquitoes, is used as a veterinary drug for the treatment of sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis Kr øyer and Caligus rogercresseyi Boxshall and Bravo, 2000) infestations in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.). Diflubenzuron acts by interference with the synthesis of chitin. Demand for chitin synthesis is greatest at the moult between growth stages and hence parasites are killed due to disruption of the moulting process.

BookletCorporate general interestIntersectionality: A pathway for more inclusive, youth-oriented and gender-responsive agrifood systems 2024What is intersectionality and how is it relevant to FAO’ s work?
Intersectionality: A pathway for more inclusive, youth-oriented and gender-responsive agrifood systems, serves as a guide for FAO employees and development practitioners who seek conceptual clarity and guidance on intersectionality. By moving beyond approaches that tend to prioritize one factor, or approaches that look at multiple factors without considering how they interact, it aims to strengthen knowledge of how intersectionality can help to identify and address different drivers of exclusion and marginalization. More specifically, it aims to build a common understanding of intersectionality, its rationale, prerequisites, its relationship to gender, youth and inclusion, and its relevance to FAO’s work. It also shows how an intersectionality informed approach has been applied by FAO and other organizations; and it proposes entry points for integrating intersectionality into FAO’s work in a more systematic way at different levels of implementation.
