Book (series)Manual / guideManual sobre la elaboración y uso de las especificaciones de plaguicidas de la FAO y la OMS
Tercera revisión de la primera edición
2017Las especificaciones FAO y OMS están elaboradas con el objetivo básico de promover, en la medida de lo posible, que la fabricación, distribución y uso de plaguicidas cumplan con los requisitos básicos de calidad. El cumplimiento de las especificaciones no constituye una aprobación o garantía de la conveniencia de un plaguicida determinado para un objetivo particular, ni de que sean adecuados para combatir una determinada plaga o idóneo para una zona particular. Debido a la complejidad de los pro blemas involucrados, la idoneidad de los plaguicidas para una finalidad particular y el contenido de las instrucciones incluidas en la etiqueta deben ser decididas a nivel nacional o provincial.

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022.

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.

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.
