DocumentOther documentAn incomes and costs study of the Egyptian purse seine fishery operated in the Gulf of Suez and off the southern Red Sea coast during 1980-81 1982
Also available in:
No results found.This report describes the incomes and costs of the Egyptian purse seine fleet operated in the Gulf of Suez and off the southern Red Sea coast during 1980-81. The principal data sources were the official statistics of daily landings, interviews with marketing agents in respect to obtaining prices, and interviews with boat owners and/or skippers for obtaining the costs. Some aspects of the current management regime were discussed. The practice of requiring some 10% of the landings at the principal landing site to be marketed at Suez, rather than in Cairo where higher prices are obtained, was shown to represent a subsidy to the population in Suez of about 3% of the gross income. A comparison of the economic performances of the boats operated in the Gulf which were managed under a regime of license limitation with the performance of the boats operated in the unlimited 'outside' the Gulf part of the fishery, indicated that the latter boats were performing marginally better. Another aspect o f management discussed was the labour cost savings that could result from the introduction of power block for hauling the nets. -
DocumentOther documentAn incomes and costs study of the Egyptian trawl fishery operated in the Gulf of Suez and off the Southern Red Sea Coast during 1980-81 1983
Also available in:
The incomes and costs of the Egyptian trawl fleet operated in the Gulf of Suez and off the southern Red Sea coast during 1980-81 are described in this report. A principal source of data arose from interviews with the boat owners and/or skippers of eighteen boats. Some aspects of the management were discussed. The importance of shrimps and lizard fish, which represented respectively 33% and 44% of the gross value of the catch, was noted. -
DocumentOther documentCatches, fishing efforts, catches for fishing effort, and fishing locations for the Gulf of Suez and Egyptian Red Sea coast trawl fishery during 1979 to 1982 1984
Also available in:
No results found.This report presents a collation of data describing the monthly catch weights by important species groups, the associated fishing efforts and catch weight per unit effort, and the fishing locations, for a period of 3 years from 1979 to 1982. Data collection involved catch enumeration at the landing sites by employees of the Department of Agriculture, and the interviewing of skippers for details of fishing efforts and fishing locations by project personnel and counterparts. The mean annual catch of 4973 tons from the Gulf of Suez is tentatively suggested as reflecting full exploitation. The potential annual catch estimated for the less exploited grounds adjacent to the Egyptian border with Sudan is 1111 tons; which is some 378 tons more than the 1982/1983 catch.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookRussian Federation: Meat sector review
Country highlights prepared under the FAO/EBRD Cooperation
2014Also available in:
World food demand has seen massive changes, including a shift from staple foods to animal proteins and vegetable oils. In the short to medium term, this trend in global food demand will continue. There will be an increased demand for vegetable oils, meat, sugar, dairy products and livestock feed made from coarse grains and oilseed meals. There are numerous mid-term forecasts for the Russian Federation’s meat sector. Most of them agree on the following trends: (i) the consumption of poultry and p ork meat will increase; (ii) the consumption of beef will decrease or stabilize; and (iii) the Russian Federation will remain a net importer of meat on the world market. According to OECD and FAO projections, meat imports from the Russian Federation will decrease from 3 to 1.3 million tonnes, owing to an anticipated growth in domestic chicken meat and pork production. The country’s share in global meat imports is anticipated to decrease from 12 percent in 2006–2010, to 4 percent in 2021. While t he Russian Federation will continue to play an important role in the international meat market, it will fall from its position as the largest meat importing country in 2006–2010 to the fourth largest global meat importer by 2021, behind Japan, sub-Saharan African countries, and Saudi Arabia. -
BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018.
