ProjectFactsheetAppui à la promotion de l’entreprenariat rural au Togo - UTF/TOG/020/TOG 2022
Also available in:
No results found.Le Projet national de promotion de l’entreprenariat rural (PNPER) a été initié dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre de Programme national d’investissement agricole et de sécurité alimentaire et financé par le Fonds international de développement agricole (FIDA) entre 2014 et 2021. Il devait contribuer à réduire la pauvreté et à améliorer les conditions de vie en milieu rural à travers le développement de Micro et petites entreprises rurales (MPER) le long de filières agricoles porteuses. Dans ce contexte, la FAO a apporté son expertise afin d’assurer au mieux la pérennisation des MPER créées ou consolidées, notamment en dotant six centres de formation et l’Association professionnelle des Centres de formation agricole et rurale (APCFAR) de 13 syllabus et 13 cahiers de l’apprenant pour le renforcement de capacités des jeunes entrepreneurs agricoles et en élaborant une stratégie de sortie pour pérenniser les actions du PNPER. -
ProjectFactsheetProjet d’appui pour la mise en place d’une Stratégie de gestion durable de la chenille légionnaire d’automne au Burkina Faso - TCP/BKF/3606 2020
Also available in:
No results found.La présence de la Chenille légionnaire d’automne (CLA) ou Spodoptera frugiperda a été signalée pour la première fois au début de l’année 2016 en Afrique de l'Ouest et du Centre. En octobre 2017, elle était présente dans 13 pays ouest-africains, dont le Burkina Faso. Les 13 régions du Burkina Faso ont ainsi été confrontées à l’invasion de CLA au cours de la campagne agricole 2017/2018, avec plus de 58 324 hectares de cultures touchés. Les régions des Cascades, du Sud Ouest et du Centre Ouest ont été les plus durement affectées, avec 7 655 ménages recensés victimes de ce ravageur. La CLA s’attaque à plusieurs cultures dont le maïs, le riz, le sorgho, le mil, la canne à sucre et les cultures maraîchères. Les infestations de CLA, exacerbées par la pluviométrie, ont eu un impact négatif sur le rendement agricole dans les zones affectées, mettant en péril la capacité des populations locales à se nourrir à court terme. -

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. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureWhy bees matter
The importance of bees and other pollinators for food and agriculture
2018Also available in:
For centuries bees, busy as they are known to be, have benefited people, plants and the planet. But did you know that bees are not the only ones that sustain life on earth? By carrying pollen from one flower to another, bees, butterflies, birds, bats and other pollinators facilitate and improve food production, thus contributing to food security and nutrition. Pollination also has a positive impact on the environment in general, helping to maintain biodiversity and the vibrant ecosystems upon which agriculture depends. To encourage pollinator-friendly practices in agricultural management and stop the decline of pollinator populations, FAO carries out various activities. Every year on 20 May, World Bee Day offers an opportunity for all of us to pay tribute to pollinators. -
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.
