Book (stand-alone)GuidelineInternational Guidelines for the Management of Deep-sea Fisheries in the High Seas/Directives internationales sur la gestion de la pêche profonde en haute mer/ Directrices Internacionales para la Ordenación de las Pesquerías de Aguas Profundas en Alta Mar 2009These International Guidelines for the Management of Deep-sea Fisheriesin the High Seas were developed through a participatory process involving fisheries experts, fishery managers from governments, the fishing industry,academia and non-governmental and intergovernmental organizations. The guidelines are designed to provide guidance on management factors ranging from an appropriate regulatory framework to the components of a good data collection programme, and include the identification of key management considerations and measures necessary to ensure the conservation of target and non-target species, as well as affected habitats. These guidelines are voluntary and constitute an instrument of reference to help States and RFMO/As in formulating and implementing appropriate measures for the management of deep-sea fisheries in the high seas.Ces Directives internationales sur la gestion de la pêche profonde en haute mer ont été développées au moyen d’un processus participatif qui a impliqué des experts des pêches, des gestionnaires des pêches des gouvernements, l’industrie des pêches, des universités ainsi que des organisations non-gouvernementales et intergouvernementales. Les directives sont conçues pour donner des orientations sur différents aspects de la gestion allant du cadre réglementaire adéquat jusqu’aux composantes d’un bon système de cueillette de données, et elles incluent l’identification des considérations de gestions clés et des mesures nécessaires pour protéger les espèces cibles, les espèces accessoires et les habitats. Les directives sont facultatives et constituent un instrument de référence pour aider les États et les organisations et arrangements régionaux de gestion des pêches à formuler et à mettre en oeuvre des mesures appropriées pour la gestion des pêches profondes en haute mer.Estas Directrices Internacionales para la Ordenación de las Pesquerías de Aguas Profundas en Alta Mar fueron elaboradas a través de un proceso participativo en el que intervinieron expertos en pesquerías,administradores de pesquerías de distintos gobiernos, la industria pesquera, universidades y organizaciones no gubernamentales e intergubernamentales. Las directrices se diseñaron para proporcionar orientación sobre factores de ordenación que abarcan tanto el establecimiento de un marco regulador adecuado como la elaboración de un programa eficaz de recopilación de datos, pasando por la identificación de las consideraciones fundamentales sobre la ordenación y por las medidas que deben adoptarse para garantizar la conservación de las especies que son o no objeto de pesca, así como la de los habitats afectados. Las directrices tienen carácter voluntario y constituyen un instrumento de referencia para ayudar a los Estados y a las organizaciones y los acuerdos regionales de ordenación pesquera en la elaboración y aplicación de las medidas adecuadas para la ordenación de las pesquerías de aguas profundas en alta mar.

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. -

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.
