    This is the report of the Workshop on Financing Value-added Production and Marketing of Fishery Products in Asia and the Pacific held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, from 26 to 30 May 1997. The workshop was attended by 53 participants from eleven countries, including six experts under the Technnical Co-operation among Developing Countries (TCDC) programme. Only the participation of the TCDC experts and the two FAO staff members was funded by FAO while all other participants were funded by their ow n institutions or by bilateral development agencies such as the Overseas Development Administration (ODA) and the Danish International Development Agency (DANIDA). This reflects the interest in the workshop of the concerned national institutions and organizations as well as their commitment. The meeting was a direct contribution to Commitment Six of the Rome Declaration and the World Food Summit Plan of Action as it promoted optimal allocation and use of public and private investments in supp ort of value-added fishery products. It also relates directly to the theme of World Food Day 1997 which was Investing in Food Security. The workshop commenced with presentations on trends and developments in value-added production and marketing of fishery products and went on to discuss the financial and investment requirements for value-added production and marketing of fishery products. Country presentations and case studies followed from Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Nepal, Thailand, M alaysia, Philippines, Vietnam, Iran and the Maldives. In addition to exchanging and discussing experiences in financing the production and marketing of value-added fishery products, the meeting also drew up specific proposals for follow-up at national and regional levels to enhance credit facilities for the production and marketing of value-added fishery products with particular reference to the small- and medium-scale sector.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    Also available in:
    The 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.

    Emissions due to agriculture
    Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018

    Also 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.
