Book (stand-alone)Technical study粮食和农业遗传资源获取和惠益分享：国别措施类型
补充I
2024粮食和农业遗传资源委员会（遗传委）在第十七届例会上要求整理关于土著人民和当地社区所掌握的粮食和农业遗传资源各分部门以及粮食和农业遗传资源相关传统知识的获取和惠益分享的现有立法、行政和政策措施（包括最佳做法）的调查结果，旨在确定实施获取和惠益分享的典型做法、经验教训、面临的挑战及可能的解决方案。应遗传委要求，委托开展了一项调查，以便了解各国为落实获取和惠益分享措施，采取了哪些类型的立法、行政或政策措施，以顾及粮食和农业遗传资源及其各分部门和相关传统知识的独特特征。考虑到调查情况，遗传委在第十八届例会上要求编写一份单独的文件，提供各国直接或间接顾及粮食和农业遗传资源及相关传统知识独特特征的现行立法、行政或政策措施的具体实例。这份文件便是反映粮农遗传资源的重要性、其在粮食安全方面的特殊作用以及其独特特征的获取和惠益分享国家措施类型增编I。 -

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. -
Book (series)GuidelineOperationalization of FAO Voluntary Guidelines for the Marking of Fishing Gear in the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC) area of competence 2022
Also available in:
No results found.A system for the marking of fishing gear should be an integral part of fisheries management. The marking of fishing gear is an important tool to reduce gear loss and aid recovery, helps in determining ownership, assists in the management and control of fishing effort, facilitates monitoring, control and surveillance, and deters IUU fishing. The marking of fishing gear also contributes to safe navigation. This document evaluates the major fishing gears that harvest species under the management of the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC) through a risk assessment to determine the level of complexity when implementing a system of fishing gear marking. The analysis includes five types of fishing gear, which account for 90 percent of fish landings in the IOTC area of competence, as well as two types of fish aggregating device (FAD). Purse seines, drift gillnets, and drifting FADs are deemed to have “high” or “very high” overall risks, while anchored FADs have “medium” risks, and handline, pole-and-line and trolling lines have “very low” risks. Based on the evaluation, the document proposed a framework for marking these fishing gears and FADs, based on the principles outlined in the FAO Voluntary Guidelines on the Marking of Fishing Gear. It also provides an indicative economic assessment for implementing a system of fishing gear marking in the IOTC area, based on the responsibilities between the IOTC Secretariat, the Contracting Parties and Cooperating Non-contracting Parties (CPCs), and fishing operators (fishers, fisher organizations and/or corporations). Implementing a system of fishing gear marking requires extensive effort from the IOTC Secretariat and CPCs in terms of awareness raising and communication. Considering the diversity of CPCs, which are predominately developing states, implementing a system of fishing gear marking in the IOTC area will require careful consideration in terms of capacity-building requirements and financial assistance, especially for the least developed states and Small Island Developing States. As requested by IOTC, a draft resolution for implementing a system of fishing gear marking for the IOTC area of competence has been prepared. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookThe future of food and agriculture - Trends and challenges 2017
Also available in:
No results found.What will be needed to realize the vision of a world free from hunger and malnutrition? After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary. The present study was undertaken for the quadrennial review of FAO’s strategic framework and for the preparation of the Organization Medium-Term plan 2018-2021.
