Synopsis (short abstract) El zorro ojón, Alopias superciliosus es una especie que se encuentra en el océano abierto, es altamente migratoria con distribución en todo el mundo, en mares tropicales y templados, en mar abierto y zonas costeras. Los datos genéticos indican que las poblaciones del Indo-Pacífico y del Atlántico son distintas, pero no hay datos para evaluar la estructura de la población con mayor precisión. El Grupo Especia concluyó quel no hay evidencia confiable para sostener que existe un descenso del zor ro ojón que se ajuste a los criterios de inclusión del Apéndice II.

    Soil pollution: a hidden reality 2018
    Also available in:
    This document presents key messages and the state-of-the-art of soil pollution, its implications on food safety and human health. It aims to set the basis for further discussion during the forthcoming Global Symposium on Soil Pollution (GSOP18), to be held at FAO HQ from May 2nd to 4th 2018. The publication has been reviewed by the Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soil (ITPS) and contributing authors. It addresses scientific evidences on soil pollution and highlights the need to assess the extent of soil pollution globally in order to achieve food safety and sustainable development. This is linked to FAO’s strategic objectives, especially SO1, SO2, SO4 and SO5 because of the crucial role of soils to ensure effective nutrient cycling to produce nutritious and safe food, reduce atmospheric CO2 and N2O concentrations and thus mitigate climate change, develop sustainable soil management practices that enhance agricultural resilience to extreme climate events by reducing soil degradation processes. This document will be a reference material for those interested in learning more about sources and effects of soil pollution.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
    Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
    2020
    Also available in:
    Updates 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.

    Guía de análisis costo beneficio. Aplicación para medidas de adaptación al cambio climático en el sector agropecuario en Uruguay. 2019
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    El objetivo de este texto es presentar una guía práctica para la evaluación ex ante de políticas y proyectos a través del método de análisis costo beneficio (ACB), en particular para su aplicación en medidas de adaptación al cambio climático en el sector agropecuario. En el primer capítulo se introducen los impactos del cambio climático en el sector, así como las políticas y medidas de adaptación. En el segundo capítulo se definen los conceptos microeconómicos básicos del ACB, como la eficiencia económica, bienestar social, período de análisis y análisis de flujo de fondos incrementales. En el tercer capítulo se trata la identificación y formulación de proyectos. El cuarto capítulo detalla la estimación y valoración económica de los impactos del proyecto. El quinto capítulo describe la aplicación de la tasa de descuento y el cálculo de los indicadores de resumen. Por último, en el sexto capítulo se trata el análisis de sensibilidad y de riesgo. Esta publicación fue elaborada en el marco del proyecto de elaboración del Plan Nacional de Adaptación al Cambio y la Variabilidad Climática para el Sector Agropecuario en Uruguay (PNA-Agro), implementado por la Unidad de Sostenibilidad y Cambio Climático del Ministerio de Ganadería, Agricultura y Pesca (MGAP-OPYPA). El proyecto PNA-Agro es liderado por la FAO y el PNUD, con el apoyo del Ministerio Federal de Medio Ambiente, Conservación de la Naturaleza, Construcción y Seguridad Nuclear de Alemania.
