Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureCosts and Benefits of Clean Energy Technologies in Kenya’s Milk Value Chain 2018
Also available in:
No results found.This policy brief summarizes the policy recommendations stemming from the FAO Investing in Sustainable Energy Technologies for the Agrifood Sector (INVESTA) project. Here the focus is on how to foster investment and adoption of biogas digesters for power generattion, biogas domestic milk chillers and solar milk coolers in Kenya. -

Intervention level
2018Also available in:
No results found.The report focuses on three food supply value chains, their costs, benefits and sustainability potentials were analysed together with unintended impacts at the intervention level (e.g. at farmer or food processor level). A methodological approach was developed to provide a sound and comprehensive cost-benefit analysis (CBA). The potential added value of these technologies for different stakeholders was then considered using selected case studies. The methodological approach highlights hidden environmental and socio-economic costs of interventions, such as government-subsidized fossil fuel, which are often borne by non-economic operators. Such costs and co-benefits were therefore included and highlighted in the analysis and compared to a simple financial analysis to inform investments. A range of 12 impact indicators was developed to assess potential non-monetized environmental and socio-economic impacts that could arise when introducing an innovative clean energy technology. Costs were compiled for each of the selected agrifood clean energy technologies, based on case studies where data were available. A CBA for intervention-level was then conducted to assess the impacts from adopting a specific technology, such as an improvement in the efficient use of energy.

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.

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. -
