    Honduras has a unique combination of coniferous forests from the Northern Hemisphere and deciduous or broadleaf forests from the Southern Hemisphere, allowing for the encounter of unique flora and fauna species and vegetation types. Forests provide multiple ecosystem services for supply, regulation, cultural and population, such as water regulation, carbon storage, ecosystem and wildlife habitat conservation, scenic beauty or landscapes, and soil conservation. This rich and diverse natural capital in Honduras is critical to sustaining key economic sectors and supporting the livelihoods of the rural poor. Farming and livestock activities are part of the livelihood, and the agricultural sector accounts for 13.9% of the national GDP.Despite its importance, the country's natural capital is rapidly degrading for several causes, including agriculture, mining, and livestock. The country's forests are increasingly degraded, losing their capacity to provide ecosystem services and benefits, and contributing to ecosystem fragmentation, biodiversity loss and climate change. At the same time, the country's high vulnerability to natural disasters and climate change negatively affects its economy. Honduras is a country severely affected by weather-related events and other hazards.The proposed GEF project aims to address the degradation and fragmentation of Honduras' natural capital and improve the livelihoods of local communities in the productive landscapes in the Olancho Department with a particular focus on the landscapes area between Sierra de Agalta, Boquerón, and La Muralla protected areas.

    Food loss analysis: causes and solutions – The Republic of Uganda. Beans, maize, and sunflower studies 2019
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    This report illustrates the food loss assessment studies undertaken along the maize, sunflower and beans supply chains in Uganda in 2015-16 and 2016-17. They aimed to identify the critical loss points in the selected supply chains, the key stages at which food losses occur, why they occur, the extent and impact of food losses and the economic, social and environmental implications of the food losses. Furthermore, these studies also evaluated the feasibility of potential interventions to reduce food losses and waste.
