    Achieving the first two Sustainable Development Goals in Sierra Leone, the eradication of poverty and hunger by 2030, requires an additional USD 1.1 billion annual investment. Of that, more than 62 percent should target agriculture and rural development. It is important to stress that not only more investments are required, but better investments. Responsible investments in agriculture and food systems contribute to sustainable development, enhance food security and nutrition and respect human rights. FAO empowers key stakeholders in Sierra Leone to create an enabling environment for responsible investment in agriculture and food systems. This brochure presents the main interventions for key stakeholders: learning programmes for policy makers and technical government staff; capacity development events for civil society and producer organizations; and multi-stakeholder policy dialogue events. This work is supported by Germany.

    Between 2 and 17 January 2024, following a request by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MoA&F), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), in close cooperation with the Food Security Technical Secretariat (FSTS) and the State Ministries of Agriculture, carried out its annual Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission (CFSAM) to estimate the 2023 crop production and assess the food supply situation throughout the 18 states of the country. The report's recommendations are to provide immediate response to the needs of the population most affected by acute food insecurity as well as to support the recovery of the agriculture sector, increasing food production and farmers’ incomes, and enhancing efficiency along the value chain to reduce production costs.

    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.
