DocumentFactsheetRenforcer la gestion des pesticides dans l'agriculture au Nepal - TCP/NEP/3502 2017Les résidus de pesticides dans les aliments, l’exposition des agriculteurs aux pesticides et la pollution de l'environnement sont de graves sujets de préoccupations au Népal. Les risques liés aux pesticides sont élevés en raison du manque de connaissance des agriculteurs, de l’insuffisance des formations et de la sensibilisation à la production sécuritaire des cultures vivrières, de l’absence d'un code de pratiques efficace et d’une surveillance inadéquate des résidus. Le projet visait à amélior er les capacités de gestion des pesticides du secteur public et de celui du privé ainsi que des agriculteurs, afin de réduire les résidus de pesticides dans les produits agricoles.

ProjectFactsheetStrengthening Capacity of Public and Private Sector Stakeholders for Promotion of Organic Agriculture in Karnali Province of Nepal - TCP/NEP/3804 2023
Also available in:
No results found.Karnali Province, the largest province in Nepal, is characterized by widespread poverty, unemployment, food insecurity, malnutrition, inequality, isolation and underdevelopment. Agriculture is the main source of livelihoods, but is constrained by a lack of inputs, climate change impacts, high youth/male migration, limited market access and weak government capacity for financial investment. On the other hand, agricultural activities, particularly in the highlands, are largely biosecure and organic in nature, with high potential for the production of high-value agricultural (HVA) products. To leverage this advantage, the provincial government aims to gradually transform the province into a fully organic state with a vision of “Increased Organic Farming for a Prosperous Karnali” and has prioritized organic agriculture as one of the key development agendas. Through a previous project (TCP/NEP/3704), FAO assessed the agricultural systems in Karnali Province in relation to organic production and marketing. The assessment identified key challenges and opportunities and provided strategies for future interventions. The present project, implemented on a pilot scale in some districts of this province covering two ecological zones (high hills and mid-hills), aimed to develop a package of practices and approaches to promote sustainable cultivation, harvesting, processing, value addition and marketing of certified HVA products by strengthening technical and institutional capacities. -
DocumentFactsheetMejora de la gestión de plaguicidas en la agricultura en Nepal- TCP/NEP/3502 2017Los residuos plaguicidas en los alimentos, la exposición de los agricultores a los plaguicidas y la contaminación del medio ambiente constituyen un grave problema en Nepal. Los riesgos derivados de los plaguicidas son elevados debido a la falta de conocimientos de los agricultores, la escasa capacitación y los pocos conocimientos sobre la producción segura de cultivos alimentarios, la ausencia de un código de prácticas eficaz y el inadecuado seguimiento de los residuos. El objetivo del proyecto era mejorar la capacidad de gestión de los plaguicidas de los sectores público y privado con el fin de disminuir los residuos plaguicidas en los productos agrícolas.

Book (series)Technical studyPacific oyster farming
A practical manual
2024Also available in:
No results found.The purpose of this manual is to give the reader a foundation of practical knowledge regarding all aspects of Pacific oyster cultivation. It is targeted at new entrants to the market wishing to establish a farm, and existing operators who wish to develop their farms and explore new cultivation techniques. The methodologies described can be applied both to low-tech, low budget, small-scale farming operations and to high-tech, big budget, industrial-scale aquaculture production enterprises. This guide focuses on the functional expertise and technical equipment required to construct and manage an operational farm in the diverse environmental and physical locations in which they can be situated, from the initial stages of finding and selecting a suitable site, to the conclusion of the first production cycle and harvesting the crop. The manual contains a brief introduction which describes the relevance of the species with regards to global aquaculture production figures and how it can form an important part of future food production strategies. Chapter 2 describes the anatomy and biology of Crassostrea gigas and gives an indication as to the environmental conditions in which the species thrives as well as the pathologies and predators that can result in poor health leading to potential mortalities. Chapter 3 deals with all aspects of undertaking a survey of potential oyster farming sites and what data should be collected and examined to assess a site’s suitability, but also which areas are best suited to different cultivation techniques. After this, Chapter 4 introduces the main farming techniques that will be described in detail in the following chapters, which includes off-bottom cultivation, on-bottom cultivation, and suspended cultivation, and gives details of some of the most common cultivation equipment necessary to undertake these operations. The techniques and strategies necessary to procure seed oysters and how to develop them through the nursery stage are also introduced. This includes the basic principles of upwelling, which then leads into Chapter 5, which provides a detailed description of how to build and operate one particular example of a Floating Upwelling System (Flupsy) which is suitable for use in remote but sheltered conditions. Chapters 6, 7 and 8 constitute the main body of the manual and provide an in-depth look into the three major cultivation techniques that this guide concentrates on: “Farming with trestles and bags in the intertidal zone”, “On-bottom cultivation in the intertidal or subtidal zone” and “Offshore longline cultivation”. -
