No results found.Indonesia’s marine resources cover 37 percent of fish species in the world Several of these, such as tuna, shrimp, lobster, coral fishes and seaweed, have great economic value Indonesia is the largest seaweed provider in the world and one of the largest global suppliers of tuna and shrimp Seafood products are among the most widely traded food commodities in the world In order to meet the increasing demand for fish, Asian aquaculture has experienced a rapid growth in the past four decades Indonesian shrimp production reached 637 555 tonnes in 2016 making Indonesia the second largest shrimp producer in the world after China In 2017 cultured shrimp exports accounted for USD 1 7 billion or close to 175 000 tonnes (processed weight, including exports of wild shrimp) The Asian fishery industry relies on the major importing markets of the European Union and the United States of America, which have complex food and animal health, food safety and quality assurance requirements for market access, in line with World Trade Organization rules New market traceability requirements have implications for developing countries, such as Indonesia In anticipation of this, MMAF developed a National Fisheries Traceability and Logistics System Sistem Ketelusuran dan Logistik Ikan Nasional STELINA), an integrated information system linking all information systems related to capture fisheries, aquaculture, food safety and distribution points along the value chain, and providing data and information from point of source to the receiving buyer.

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. -
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. -
