Book (series)High-profileGIEWS Update Central America 2015
Also available in:
Prolonged dry weather associated with the current El Niño event reduces the 2015 output of the main season crops. Aggregate 2015 maize production of the subregion’s four major producing countries is tentatively forecast by FAO to fall 8 percent from the previous year’s already reduced level, but sharper declines are expected in most-affected El Salvador and Honduras. Imports of maize in the 2015/16 marketing year (September/August) are set to increase substantially in the subregion. Maize pr ices remain well above their year-earlier levels, reflecting the unfavourable production prospects and reduced availabilities from the 2014 drought-reduced harvests. -

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. -
