Book (series)FAO journalUnasylva: Restauración de bosques y paisajes
No. 245. Vol. 66 2015/3
2015La publicación de este número de Unasylva coincide con dos importantes acontecimientos para el sector forestal. Las 196 Partes en la Convención Marco de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Cambio Climático acaban de reunirse en París en la Conferencia sobre el Cambio Climático para negociar un importante acuerdo sobre el clima. También, en París, el Foro Mundial de Paisajes 2015 es sede de debates de alto nivel sobre investigación y políticas relativas al uso de la tierra. La restauración de bosques y paisajes es una pieza clave de este rompecabezas. -
Book (stand-alone)Manual / guideEl camino de la restauración - Guía de identificación de prioridades e indicadores para monitorear la restauración de bosques y paisajes 2020Esta publicación guía a los profesionales a través de siete preguntas para ayudarlos a tomar decisiones con respecto al monitoreo de la restauración. Primero, se les pide que determinen sus objetivos de restauración, el uso de la tierra y las barreras para la sustentabilidad. Estas opciones se filtran por limitaciones y prioridades, por lo que el profesional desarrollará los indicadores necesarios para configurar su marco de monitoreo. Los indicadores son valiosas medidas del desempeño del desarrollo diseñadas para medir y calibrar el progreso. Los indicadores ambientales se utilizan para proporcionar conocimientos sintetizados y para resaltar el alcance de las tendencias ambientales. También ayudan a reducir la complejidad, proporcionan vínculos entre la ciencia y las políticas, y ayudan a los responsables de la toma de decisiones a proporcionar orientación sobre la gobernanza ambiental. Un marco de indicadores puede proporcionar una herramienta de gestión para ayudar a los países a desarrollar estrategias de implementación y asignar recursos para alcanzar los objetivos de restauración. El monitoreo con indicadores puede actuar como muestra para medir el progreso hacia la restauración y ayudar a garantizar la responsabilidad de todas las partes interesadas para lograr los objetivos. La guía utiliza estudios de casos de países para mostrar cómo un profesional podría responder a las preguntas, ofreciendo un menú de indicadores para medir el progreso del monitoreo. A continuación, destaca los diferentes tipos de datos que pueden contribuir a la creación de un marco de indicadores, según las limitaciones de recursos y las necesidades de información.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms. -
Book (series)Technical studyAssessment and collection of data on pre-harvest food grain losses due to pests and diseases 1983
Also available in:
No results found.The manual is intended to serve as a guide to the statistical methodology for assessing and collecting data on pre-harvest foodgrain losses due to pests and diseases. It should be useful to those developing countries which plan to launch foodgrain losses reduction programmes but find themselves seriously handicapped because of lack of basic data. The manual will go a long way in assisting those who will be charged with the responsibility of planning and implementing surveys for estimating pre-harvest foodgrain losses due to pests and diseases. -
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.
