    Fortalecer las capacidades nacionales y subregionales para controlar brotes de peste porcina africana en República Dominicana y Haití - TCP/SLM/3806 2024
    Also available in:
    La PPA fue confirmada en la República Dominicana y Haití en 2021. Se trata de una enfermedad animal transfronteriza para la que no existen vacunas ni tratamientos eficaces. Su control es complejo y requiere de unos SV bien estructurados, organizados y eficientes. Los posibles impactos adversos sobre la economía agrícola y los medios de vida de los pequeños agricultores familiares son muy elevados, ya que los cerdos son una fuente importante de proteína animal y una fuente de ingresos para miles de habitantes rurales. Por otro lado, debido a la migración a gran escala desde Haití hacia América Central y del Sur y hacia los Estados Unidos, el riesgo de que la enfermedad se propague al continente americano es alto. Actualmente la capacidad y la infraestructura de los SV de ambos países para controlar los brotes es limitada, principalmente en Haití, a pesar de la rápida respuesta de los gobiernos y de la industria porcina.

    La PPA es una enfermedad viral que puede tener graves repercusiones en el comercio mundial y la seguridad alimentaria El virus permanece activo durante largos períodos en la sangre, las heces y los tejidos infectados, no existiendo a día de hoy vacuna lo cual dificulta su contención y hace imposible llevar a cabo un control de la enfermedad El impacto de la enfermedad en los países, así como regiones y subregiones, es muy relevante y genera i pérdidas de empleos ii) pérdidas de mercados de exportación iii) mortalidad animal iv) escasez de recursos en personas de bajos ingresos v) pérdida de fuente de proteína animal, y vi) merma en la capacidad económica en las familias vulnerables La producción porcina en América se puede dividir en dos tipos producción rural y producción industrial La producción porcina rural la realizan pequeños agricultores, apoyada por tecnologías de bajo nivel y manteniendo pocos animales que transforman el pasto, las cosechas locales y los desechos del hogar en proteína animal Se basa principalmente en la cría doméstica de animales, con pocos animales por unidad de producción, pero ocupando grandes zonas geográficas La falta de asistencia veterinaria y de control sanitario, de identificación y de trazabilidad de estas unidades de producción representa un gran riesgo para la introducción de la PPA La producción porcina industrial, en cambio, se apoya en tecnologías especializadas con gran número de animales, con asistencia veterinaria y una cadena de sacrificio y comercialización bien organizada Los efectos de la PPA en los medios de subsistencia de las poblaciones rurales que crían cerdos como medio para tener ingresos adicionales serían devastadores Además, los costes de las medidas de control, incluido el sacrificio de la población infectada y la desinfección de la infraestructura y los fómites, reducirán la capacidad de resiliencia de las zonas afectadas La PPA después de más de 40 años sin estar presente en América Latina y el Caribe ( se presentó y evidenció la pertinencia y necesidad de realizar un proyecto para dotar de herramientas y trabajos a los SVO.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    Also available in:
    The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. 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.

    This technical documentation supports the “Guidelines for sustainable tick control and acaricide resistance management in livestock” and provides practical information for managing tick populations and preventing acaricide resistance in livestock. Key sections include guidance on the identification and monitoring of ticks, laboratory bioassays for assessing resistance, recommendations for implementation of tick control strategy and best practices in acaricide use. The document also explores the social and behavioural factors influencing management practices and presents challenges and opportunities for implementing integrated tick management programmes.Additionally, it outlines regulatory requirements especially for the efficacy and safety evaluation of acaricides as well as a regional landscape of marketing authorization. Overall, this technical documention aims to provide practical and technical support to animal health professionals, promoting sustainable and effective tick control strategies that mitigate resistance development and ensure livestock health.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
    Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
    2021
    Also available in:
    In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms.
