Programa de la FAO de respuesta y recuperación ante la pandemia COVID-19
2021La crisis sanitaria de la pandemia COVID-19 está teniendo consecuencias de gran alcance en todos los sectores de la sociedad, incluyendo los sistemas alimentarios, los medios de vida y la seguridad alimentaria. Es imprescindible contar con información fiable y oportuna para anticipar y mitigar sus impactos negativos y especialmente para identificar aquellas áreas donde la pandemia está generando tensiones nuevas y sin precedentes. Los focos geográficos que tradicionalmente sufren de inseguridad alimentaria en contextos de emergencia son los más afectados, debido también a las dificultades para la prestación de ayuda humanitaria. Por otra parte, de acuerdo a la respuesta a la pandemia, podrían aparecer nuevos focos de inseguridad alimentaria, incluso en países y poblaciones que anteriormente no se habían visto afectadas por las crisis de seguridad alimentaria. Es importante actuar ahora para asegurar una recuperación efectiva tras la pandemia COVID-19, potenciar la resiliencia de los sistemas alimentarios y afianzar su papel en el crecimiento económico mundial. Con este fin, existe una necesidad urgente de proporcionar datos y análisis que respalden la formulación de políticas y el diseño de programas para evitar perturbaciones en los sistemas alimentarios, prevenir la inseguridad alimentaria y proteger los medios de vida de las poblaciones afectadas. -

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. -
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.
