    2020年世界渔业和水产养殖状况
    可持续发展在行动
    2020
    2020年版《世界渔业和水产养殖状况》对可持续性给予了特别关注,这反映出多项具体考虑。首先,2020年是《负责任渔业行为守则》(《守则》)通过的第二十五周年。第二,多项可持续发展目标指标要在2020年完成。第三,粮农组织于2019年末主办了国际渔业可持续性研讨会。第四,粮农组织关于水产养殖可持续增长和价值链社会可持续性的几项准则也将在2020年完成。本书第1部分保留了以往版本的格式,其余部分的结构已做了调整。第2部分首先用一小节篇幅专门纪念《守则》通过二十五周年。这部分还集中关注新出现的问题,尤其是与粮农组织作为“托监管机构”的可持续发展目标14及其相关指标有关的问题。此外,第2部分还涵盖了渔业和水产养殖可持续性的多个方面,所讨论的话题范围广泛,从数据和信息系统到海洋污染、产品合法性、使用者权利和气候变化适应。第3部分是本书的最后部分,涵盖了预测和新出现的问题,如新技术和水产养殖生物安全,最后简要介绍了实现捕捞渔业新愿景所需要采取的步骤。《世界渔业和水产养殖状况》旨在向广大受众,包括决策者、管理者、科研人员、利益相关方和所有对渔业和水产养殖部门感兴趣的人,提供客观、可靠和最新的信息。

    OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2014-2023 2014
    The Agricultural Outlook, 2014-2023, is a collaborative effort of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. It brings together the commodity, policy and country expertise of both organisations and input from collaborating member countries to provide an annual assessment of prospects for the coming decade of national, regional and global agricultural commodity markets. The special feature on India has b een prepared in collaboration with analysts associated with the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER), the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Government of India and the FAO Representation in India. However, OECD and FAO are responsible for the information and projections contained in this document, and the views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of Indian institutions. The baseline projection is not a forecast about the future, but rather a plausible scenario based on specific assumptions regarding the macroeconomic conditions, the agriculture and trade policy settings, weather conditions, longer term productivity trends and international market developments. The projections of production, consumption, stocks, trade and prices for the different agricultural products described and analysed in this report cover the years 2014 to 2023. The evolution of markets over the outlook period is typically described using annual g rowth rates or percentage changes for the final year 2023 relative to a three-year base period of 2011-13. The individual commodity projections are subject to critical examination by experts from national institutions in collaborating countries and international commodity organisations prior to their finalisation and publication in this report. The risks and uncertainties around the baseline projections are examined through a number of possible alternative scenarios and stochastic analysis, whic h illustrate how market outcomes may differ from the deterministic baseline projections. The fully documented outlook database, including historical data and projections, is available through the OECD-FAO joint internet site www.agri-outlook.org.

    This case study comes from Mozambique, where human-wildlife conflict was not a new issue in 2010. Incidents had been increasing, particularly those involving crocodiles Crocodylus niloticus, and also elephants Loxodonta africana and lions Panthera leo. These incidents impacted food security, local community incomes, well-being and safety, and were exacerbated by poverty levels. Human-wildlife conflict had become a major concern for the Government of Mozambique and led them to formulate a National Strategy for Human-Wildlife Conflict Management (2009-2014). The government approved the Strategy in 2009, and from 2010 its implementation was supported by FAO, through a Technical Cooperation Programme Project The FAO project's objective was to design an implementation plan for the Strategy with the expressed goal of mitigating human-wildlife conflicts and build the needed capacity in the country to be able to do so. This case study focuses on how capacity was built in Mozambique to implement the Strategy. By building capacity in the national government agencies, the FAO project empowered the government agencies to guide and implement the country's national strategy on human-wildlife conflict. The overhauled database, covering five years (2006-2010), was presented at the Council of Ministers, in order to underscore the importance of the situation in Mozambique, inform the Ministers of the problem, and highlight some of the tools available to reduce the impacts of human-wildlife conflict, particularly the crocodile cages that had been used and improved.
