BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.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. -
Book (stand-alone)GuidelineGuidelines on monitoring antimicrobial use at the farm level
Regional Guidelines for the Monitoring and Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance, Use and Residues in Food and Agriculture – Volume 5
2023Also available in:
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major health threat to humans, animals, plants and the environment. One of the key drivers of AMR is the misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in animal production, including in aquaculture. Therefore, monitoring the use of antimicrobials in farm animals is essential to mitigate AMR. The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH, founded as OIE) has been collecting data, mainly coming from national sales and imports records of antimicrobials, from its members on antimicrobial agents intended for use in animals since 2015. To complement this information and improve decision-making, farm-level antimicrobial use (AMU) data are needed, as it allows for better understanding of how antimicrobials are used in the field. Therefore, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (FAO RAP), the WOAH Regional Representation for Asia and the Pacific (WOAH RRAP) and the WOAH Sub-Regional Representation for South-East Asia (WOAH SRR-SEA) developed a joint guideline on Monitoring antimicrobial use at the farm level. The guideline provides detailed guidance on establishing a farm-level AMU monitoring system:- conducting a situational analysis;
- establishing an operational mechanism;
- technical preparation.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookRésistance aux antimicrobiens d'origine alimentaire
Recueil des normes
2023La résistance aux antimicrobiens (RAM) représente une sérieuse menace sanitaire à l’échelle mondiale ainsi qu’une problématique de premier ordre en matière de sécurité sanitaire des aliments. Les gouvernements et les organisations internationales reconnaissent que la question doit être abordée de façon transversale et intégrer la santé animale, la santé végétale, la santé humaine et l’environnement, conformément à l’approche «Une seule santé». Cette publication regroupe trois textes du Codex, deux directives et un code d’usages qui aideront les gouvernements à concevoir et à mettre en œuvre une stratégie efficace contre la résistance aux antimicrobiens d’origine alimentaire.
