    Este documento discute el posible efecto de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC) en la pobreza rural y la agricultura, identificando oportunidades y barreras para que los pequeños productores y los territorios rurales puedan participar de los beneficios de estas innovaciones de frontera. Se plantea la necesidad de políticas públicas para evitar la exclusión de hogares rurales, agricultores y trabajadores, a los beneficios que las TIC generan en el sistema alimentario. Se plantea que ampliar la disposición y uso de TIC en el sector rural es consistente con un enfoque de políticas públicas con aproximación territorial que busque apoyar la transformación productiva que permita aliviar pobreza y ampliar el bienestar de los hogares rurales.

    Moving forward on food loss and waste reduction
    2019
    The 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.
