Book (stand-alone)Technical book粮食展望―2004年9月第3期 2004自上次报告以来粮农组织对2004年世界谷物产量的最新预测已提高了2,900万吨，达19.85亿吨， 与2004/05年度预计利用量处于同等水平。在过去四年锐减之后这将防止全球谷物库存量再次出现大幅下降。 2004/05年度世界谷物的利用量预测为19.85亿吨， 比2003/04年度的估算利用量高出1.4%。饲料和工业用粗粮将很可能增长最快。 粮农组织已将对2005年季末世界谷物库存量的预测大幅提高， 上调至仅略低于其季初的水平，这是在过去四年每年都发生严重锐减之后。 沙漠蝗虫正在对今年撒赫勒地区的农业生产构成威胁。 整个撒赫勒地区都报告有分布广泛的蝗群的繁殖和形成。一些国家已报告给作物带来了重大损害。正在开展防治行动但需要予以加强以防止形势恶化。 2004/05年度全球谷物贸易量将剧减至2.276亿吨， 主要是由于几个传统进口国取得丰收，造成对于小麦和粗粮的进口需求减少。 近几个月来国际谷物价格疲软， 主要是由于供应前景看好和需求普遍趋弱。 国际市场上食糖价格居高不下， 原因是相对于产量来说，世界食糖消费量持续强劲 增长而世界范围内库存量预期下降。

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food and Agriculture 2019
Moving forward on food loss and waste reduction
2019The need to reduce food loss and waste is firmly embedded in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Food loss and waste reduction is considered important for improving food security and nutrition, promoting environmental sustainability and lowering production costs. However, efforts to reduce food loss and waste will only be effective if informed by a solid understanding of the problem. This report provides new estimates of the percentage of the world’s food lost from production up to the retail level. The report also finds a vast diversity in existing estimates of losses, even for the same commodities and for the same stages in the supply chain. Clearly identifying and understanding critical loss points in specific supply chains – where considerable potential exists for reducing food losses – is crucial to deciding on appropriate measures. The report provides some guiding principles for interventions based on the objectives being pursued through food loss and waste reductions, be they in improved economic efficiency, food security and nutrition, or environmental sustainability. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookDigital agriculture in action
ArtificiaI intelligence for agriculture
2021Also available in:
No results found.This publication on artificial intelligence (AI) for agriculture is the fifth in the E-agriculture in Action series, launched in 2016 and jointly produced by FAO and ITU. It aims to raise awareness about existing AI applications in agriculture and to inspire stakeholders to develop and replicate the new ones. Improvement of capacity and tools for capturing and processing data and substantial advances in the field of machine learning open new horizons for data-driven solutions that can support decision-making, facilitate supervision and monitoring, improve the timeliness and effectiveness of safety measures (e.g. use of pesticides), and support automation of many resource-consuming tasks in agriculture. This publication presents the reader with a collection of informative applications highlighting various ways AI is used in agriculture and offering valuable insights on the implementation process, success factors, and lessons learnt. -
Book (series)Technical studyThe impact of climate variability and extremes on agriculture and food security - An analysis of the evidence and case studies
Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018
2020Also available in:
No results found.Global climate studies show that not only temperatures are increasing and precipitation levels are becoming more varied, all projections indicate these trends will continue. It is therefore imperative that we understand changes in climate over agricultural areas and their impacts on agriculture production and food security. This study presents new analysis on the impact of changing climate on agriculture and food security, by examining the evidence on recent climate variability and extremes over agricultural areas and the impact of these on agriculture and food security. It shows that more countries are exposed to increasing climate variability and extremes and the frequency (the number of years exposed in a five-year period) and intensity (the number of types of climate extremes in a five-year period) of exposure over agricultural areas have increased. The findings of this study are compelling and bring urgency to the fact that climate variability and extremes are proliferating and intensifying and are contributing to a rise in global hunger. The world’s 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, herders, fishers, and forest-dependent people, who derive their food and income from renewable natural resources, are most at risk and affected. Actions to strengthen the resilience of livelihoods and food systems to climate variability and extremes urgently need to be scaled up and accelerated.
