    Normes environnementales et sociales, certification et labellisation des cultures commerciales 2003
    Also available in:
    La sécurité sur le lieu de travail et la protection de l’environnement peuvent être encouragés par des normes, par une certification et par une labellisation convenues. Cette publication passe en revue certaines des normes volontaires intéressant les cultures commerciales des pays en développement, en particulier l’agriculture biologique, le label FLO du commerce équitable, la norme de responsabilité sociale SA8000, le Programme d’agriculture durable de la Rainforest Alliance, l’Initia tive de commerce éthique ETI, la norme ISO 14001 et EurepGap. Les origines de ces initiatives, leur portée et le système de certification sont étudiés. En outre, sont abordés l’implication des parties prenantes, le processus d’élaboration des normes, les méthodes de vérification, la relation avec les conventions de l’OMC et le rôle potentiel des gouvernements. Cet ouvrage présente vingt-deux études de cas sur l’impact de ces normes et programmes de certification sur les coûts de production et les revenus des agriculteurs des pays en développement. Il fournit également des données sur les marchés des bananes, du café, du thé et des agrumes portant un label environnemental ou social. Cet ouvrage sera utile aux gouvernements, sociétés privées, ONG et autres institutions confrontées à des décisions complexes concernant les normes environnementales et sociales, la certification et la labellisation.

    Russian Federation: Meat sector review
    Country highlights prepared under the FAO/EBRD Cooperation
    2014
    Also available in:
    World food demand has seen massive changes, including a shift from staple foods to animal proteins and vegetable oils. In the short to medium term, this trend in global food demand will continue. There will be an increased demand for vegetable oils, meat, sugar, dairy products and livestock feed made from coarse grains and oilseed meals. There are numerous mid-term forecasts for the Russian Federation’s meat sector. Most of them agree on the following trends: (i) the consumption of poultry and p ork meat will increase; (ii) the consumption of beef will decrease or stabilize; and (iii) the Russian Federation will remain a net importer of meat on the world market. According to OECD and FAO projections, meat imports from the Russian Federation will decrease from 3 to 1.3 million tonnes, owing to an anticipated growth in domestic chicken meat and pork production. The country’s share in global meat imports is anticipated to decrease from 12 percent in 2006–2010, to 4 percent in 2021. While t he Russian Federation will continue to play an important role in the international meat market, it will fall from its position as the largest meat importing country in 2006–2010 to the fourth largest global meat importer by 2021, behind Japan, sub-Saharan African countries, and Saudi Arabia.

    Emissions due to agriculture
    Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018

    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.
