Book (series)BulletinPerspectives de récolte et situation alimentaire #3, septembre 2021
Rapport mondial trimestriel
2021Selon les évaluations de la FAO, à l’échelle de la planète, 44 pays, dont 33 en Afrique, neuf en Asie et deux en Amérique latine et Caraïbes, ont besoin d’une aide alimentaire extérieure. Les zones où la situation est la plus préoccupante sont l’Afghanistan et la région du Tigré en Éthiopie, où les conflits ont sérieusement détérioré la situation déjà précaire en matière de sécurité alimentaire, ainsi que Haïti et le sud de Madagascar, qui ont été frappés par des catastrophes naturelles et des chocs météorologiques. À l’échelle mondiale, l’impact de la pandémie de covid-19 continue de compromettre la sécurité alimentaire. -
Book (series)BulletinPerspectives de récolte et situation alimentaire n° 2, juillet 2022
Rapport mondial trimestriel
2022Selon les évaluations de la FAO, à l’échelle de la planète, 46 pays, dont 33 en Afrique, 10 en Asie, deux en Amérique latine et Caraïbes, et un en Europe, ont besoin d’une aide alimentaire extérieure. Cette liste comprend désormais l’Ukraine et le Sri Lanka. La situation de l’Afrique de l’Est soulève de sérieuses préoccupations, en raison de plusieurs saisons de sécheresse et d’un risque imminent de famine dans certaines régions. Partout dans le monde, la hausse des prix des denrées alimentaires et l’inflation générale détériorent la situation en matière de sécurité alimentaire, en particulier dans les pays à faible revenu et à déficit vivrier, tandis que les prix élevés des intrants agricoles pourraient restreindre leur utilisation, ce qui pourrait réduire les rendements et les récoltes en 2022. -

Rapport mondial trimestriel
2022Selon les évaluations de la FAO, à l’échelle de la planète, 44 pays, dont 33 en Afrique, neuf en Asie et deux en Amérique latine et Caraïbes, ont besoin d’une aide alimentaire extérieure. Les conditions devraient fortement se dégrader en Afrique de l’Ouest, en raison des conflits, de la cherté des denrées alimentaires et des récoltes réduites, alors que la situation est alarmante en Afrique de l’Est. Les besoins humanitaires devraient également augmenter en Afrique australe à la fin de 2022 sous l’effet de conditions météorologiques défavorables.

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 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In 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. -
DocumentOther documentNutrition and food systems. A report by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition of the Committee on World Food Security. September 2017 2018At its 42nd session in October 2015, the Committee on World Food Security (CFS) requested the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition (HLPE) to prepare a report on Nutrition and Food Systems, to be presented at CFS 44 in October 2017. This topic is highly relevant to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the implementation of the 2014 Rome Declaration on Nutrition, the subsequent Decade of Action for Nutrition, and the fulfilment of the right to adequate food. The purpose of this report is two-fold: (i) to analyse how food systems influence people’s dietary patterns and nutritional outcomes; and (ii) to highlight effective policies and programmes that have the potential to shape food systems, contribute to improved nutrition and ensure that food is produced, distributed and consumed in a sustainable manner that protects the right to adequate food for all. This report is illustrated by short case studies reflecting the wide variety of practical experiences in diff erent contexts. It also provides a set of action-oriented recommendations addressed to states and other stakeholders in order to inform CFS engagement in advancing nutrition and CFS contribution to the UN Decade of Action on Nutrition (2016–2025).
