リーフレット
2020Also available in:
日本は1951年に国際連合食糧農業機関（FAO）に加盟して以降、FAOの最重要パートナー国のひとつであり、食料安全保障の確立と自然資源の持続可能な利用の促進に努めてきました。日本の財政支援、専門技術や人材は、FAOの取り組む国際基準の設定や気候変動の緩和と適応、動植物の越境性病害虫への対策、栄養、世界農業遺産（GIAHS）、緊急対応やレジリエンスの構築といった幅広い分野において、きわめて重要といえます。 -

社会保護と農業―農村貧困の悪循環を断つ
2018貧困と飢餓の削減を掲げたミレニアム開発目標の取り組みでは、大きな 前進が見られたものの、世界では今なお10億人近くが極度の貧困（１日当 たり1.25ドル未満）の中で暮らし、７億9,500万人が慢性的な飢餓に苦し む。2030年までに貧困と飢餓の根絶を目指す新たな「持続可能な開発目 標」の実現には、更なる取り組みが必要だ。最貧層の多くは途上国の農村 部に暮らし、生計を農業に依存している。こうした人々は、貧困による栄 養失調が甚だしく、貧困が親から子へと世代を超えて引き継がれる負の 連鎖に陥っている。 多くの途上国は、こうした農村部の貧困の連鎖を断ち切るために、社会保 護と農業開発を組み合わせた新たな戦略を取り入れ、成果を上げている。 寡婦や孤児への給付金や、公共事業による貧困層への雇用保証といった 社会保護策は、こうした社会的・経済的弱者を深刻な困窮状態から救う ことができる。社会保護により、世帯は食料消費を増やし、食事を多様化 することができる。また、自分の土地での農業生産や新たな事業の立ち上 げのために、貯蓄や投資をすることもできる。農業開発プログラムは、 小規模家族農家が市場にアク セスしたり、リスクを管理するのを支援し、 雇用機会を創出することで、こうした家庭の自立を促し、レジリエンス （強靭性）を強化する。社会保護と農業振興を組み合わせ、一体的に取り 組むことで、農村部における貧困の連鎖を断ち切ることが可能となる。 -

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
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. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
2020Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions.The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition. -
