Book (stand-alone)Technical bookTackling Climate Change through Livestock
A global assessment of emissions and mitigation opportunities
2013As renewed international efforts are needed to curb greenhouse gas emissions, the livestock sector can contribute its part. An important emitter of greenhouse gas, it also has the potential to significantly reduce its emissions. This report provides a unique global assessment of the magnitude, the sources and pathways of emissions from different livestock production systems and supply chains. Relying on life cycle assessment, statistical analysis and scenario building, it also prov ides estimates of the sector’s mitigation potential and identifies concrete options to reduce emissions. The report is a useful resource for stakeholders from livestock producers to policy-makers, researchers and civil society representatives, which also intends to inform the public debate on the role of livestock supply chains in climate change and possible solutions. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookNutrition-sensitive agriculture and food systems in practice-Revised edition 2017This publication provides a list of food system-based intervention options to improve nutrition and a set concrete entry points for maximizing the impact of each intervention. Developed through leveraging different expertise in FAO, it is a key resource to assist professionals involved in different areas - from breeding to production; from food transformation and packaging to transportation and trade; from marketing and value chain to food safety; from food labelling to consumer education - to u nderstand the linkages with nutrition, and to increase their contribution for a world free from malnutrition in all its forms.

ProjectFactsheetStrengthening Soil Laboratory Facilities and Performance to Support Evidence-Based Decision-Making - TCP/BHU/3703 2022
Also available in:
No results found.Bhutan is facing serious issues with land degradation, driven by unsustainable agricultural practices, such as overgrazing, as well as infrastructure construction lacking adequate environmental measures, including mining This is further problematic because Bhutan is a mountainous country, with existing land degradation problems, such as soil erosion, landslides and severe losses in soil fertility These issues further compound issues with agricultural productivity, the environment and food security and the overall quality of life Furthermore, the country lacks a national soil map and there is very limited data available on soil quality Existing soil data are outdated and scattered among institutions, often having been collected through ad hoc surveys, and fundamental data, such as geographic location description ( of sampling sites, is missing, with limited soil profiles mapped Analytical soil data is crucial for decision making regarding soil fertility, which impacts various key areas, including food security, agriculture, the environment, climate change and sustainable development.
