    Also available in:

    The Global Forest Resources Assessment 2000 (FRA 2000) is now completed, but work has already begun on the next global assessment. The expert consultation "Global Forest Resources Assessments - Linking National and International Efforts", known as Kotka IV, brought together international experts in July 2002 to address future concepts and strategies. The articles in this issue of Unasylva are adapted for a wider audience from papers prepared for the meeting. Without going into technical detail, they explore links among assessment and monitoring, national and international information needs, criteria and indicators for sustainable forest management, and reporting of forest-related information to international instruments. The technical details can be found on the FAO Web site (www.fao.org/forestry) and will be published in the Kotka IV proceedings.

    Global Forest Resources Assessment Update 2005. Guidelines for Country Reporting to FRA 2005 2004
    Global forest resources assessments have been carried out by FAO since 1947 (FAO, 1948), practically since FAO was formed. The mandate to carry out these assessments stems both from the basic statutes of FAO, and from the decision of the Committee on Forestry (COFO). Global assessment reports have been published at approximately ten year intervals. The latest of these reports, FRA 2000, was published in 2001 (FAO, 2001). The Global Forest Resources Assessment Update for 2005, or FRA 2005, was re quested by COFO 2001 and COFO 2003, where it was recommended that global forest resources assessments should: (a) be carried out at 5 year intervals, (b) be related to international forestry processes and (c) be implemented as a broad based assessment.

    贸易与粮食安全:更好地平衡国家重点与集体利益
    2015
    全球农产品和粮食产品贸易已在最近几十年取得快速增长,各国作为出口或进口方越来越多地参与这一贸易进程。这种趋势预计将在今后几十年中持续。因此,贸易将在全球各区域对粮食安全的程度和性质产生越来越重要的影响。我们面临的挑战就是确保农产品贸易的扩大能对消除饥饿、粮食不安全和营养不良起到促进作用,而不是阻碍作用。 本版《农产品市场状况》旨在缓解目前各方在农产品贸易对粮食安全产生的影响以及如何管理农产品贸易以确保贸易开放度的增加能惠及所有国家等问题上出现的观点两极分化现象。本书通过就一系列话题举证和说明,努力促成各方就政策选择开展有实证依据的辩论,并在政策选择过程中努力实现必要的改进。
