Book (series)Technical reportReport of the Expert Consultation on the Development of a Comprehensive Global Record of Fishing Vessels. Rome, 25–28 February 2008 2008
Also available in:
No results found.The goals of the Expert Consultation were to advise FAO on the development and implementation of a global record of fishing vessels and to respond to the request from FAO’s Committee on Fisheries to further develop the concept as described in the feasibility study. A comprehensive global record, a potential additional tool to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, is envisioned as a global database gathering data from many sources in one location. A major obstacle facing fisheries e nforcement bodies is the lack of access to information on vessel identification, ownership and control. Currently, there is no single source containing basic information about fishing vessels of all sizes. The experts expressed a sense of urgency about the need for this tool. They also believed that a global record should be extensive in scope. They recommended interim activities to raise awareness about the global record and further develop some technical issues in advance of the Committee on Fisheries to be held in 2009. -

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookCommunity-based fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) monitoring, early warning and management
Training of trainers manual
2019Also available in:
No results found.Fall Armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda) was first reported in Africa in 2016. Since then, it has become a very destructive invasive pest in sub-Saharan Africa. Its main impact is on maize crops and affects different stages of growth, from early vegetative to physiological maturity. In several countries affected by FAW attack, farmer responses have been predominantly based on the use of chemical pesticides. It is important to ensure the safe use of such pesticides by farmers, but also to promote and deploy an integrated pest management (IPM) package against FAW. Farmers need the right advice, tools and resources to sustainably manage FAW. This manual provides farmers and extension service providers easy-to-use information on how they can manage FAW in smallholder cropping systems. It provides information about modules for training trainers in FAW pest diagnostics, scouting, management and data collection. The objective of this training is to provide trainers and farmers with the knowledge and skills that will enable them to identify FAW and differentiate it from other similar pests; understand the life cycle of FAW; and, know how to monitor and manage the pest. This manual gives trainers the information they need in order to support and sustain an IPM approach for FAW management in their communities. The manual is modular and allows for updates in the future as more knowledge and solutions to manage FAW become available.
