2022Азиатско-Тихоокеанская комиссия по рыбному хозяйству (АТКРХ) была учреждена в 1948 году на основании Соглашения об учреждении АТКРХ (изначально – Индо Тихоокеанский совет по рыболовству). Это региональный рыбохозяйственный орган ФАО, сформированный ФАО по просьбе ее членов в соответствии со Статьей XIV.

На этой же сессии были внесены поправки в перечень функций и обязанностей АТКРХ, предусматривающие уделение большего внимания устойчивому развитию и регулированию. В настоящее время странами – членами АТКРХ являются Австралия, Бангладеш, Вьетнам, Индия, Индонезия, Камбоджа, Китай, Малайзия, Мьянма, Непал, Новая Зеландия, Пакистан, Республика Корея, Соединенное Королевство, Соединенные Штаты Америки, Таиланд, Тимор-Лешти, Филиппины, Франция, Шри-Ланка и Япония. -

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of the World's Land and Water Resources for Food and Agriculture (SOLAW)
Managing systems at risk
2011This edition of The State of the World’s Land and Water Resources for Food and Agriculture presents objective and comprehensive information and analyses on the current state, trends and challenges facing two of the most important agricultural production factors: land and water. Land and water resources are central to agriculture and rural development, and are intrinsically linked to global challenges of food insecurity and poverty, climate change adaptation and mitigation, as well as d egradation and depletion of natural resources that affect the livelihoods of millions of rural people across the world. Current projections indicate that world population will increase from 6.9 billion people today to 9.1 billion in 2050. In addition, economic progress, notably in the emerging countries, translates into increased demand for food and diversified diets. World food demand will surge as a result, and it is projected that food production will increase by 70 percent in t he world and by 100 percent in the developing countries. Yet both land and water resources, the basis of our food production, are finite and already under heavy stress, and future agricultural production will need to be more productive and more sustainable at the same time. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookSoil erosion: the greatest challenge for sustainable soil management 2019
Also available in:
Despite almost a century of research and extension efforts, soil erosion by water, wind and tillage continues to be the greatest threat to soil health and soil ecosystem services in many regions of the world. Our understanding of the physical processes of erosion and the controls on those processes has been firmly established. Nevertheless, some elements remain controversial. It is often these controversial questions that hamper efforts to implement sound erosion control measures in many areas of the world. This book, released in the framework of the Global Symposium on Soil Erosion (15-17 May 2019) reviews the state-of-the-art information related to all topics related to soil erosion. -
