    The product of a year-long effort, this document reiterates FAO’s global vision and mission in sustainable agriculture and food security, and articulates the elements of strategy that FAO and its member countries in Asia and the Pacific might adopt to realize them. Six thematic programme areas are identified to guide the Asia-Pacific region in national and collective actions towards achieving the World Food Summit target of halving the number of undernourished by 2015. These are: restructuring o f the agricultural sector; decentralizing governance in support of sustainable development; reducing vulnerability to disasters; promoting effective and equitable management, conservation and sustainable use of natural resources; strengthening biosecurity; and alleviating poverty in rice-based livelihood systems. Within each thematic area, the general rationale, goal, objectives, strategic elements, outcomes and impact indicators are given and an implementation strategy is outlined.
