Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
2020Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions.The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookLos fertilizantes y su uso
Una guía de bolsillo para los oficiales de extensión
2002Also available in:
Esta guía fue preparada originariamente para uso de los oficiales de extensión que trabajaban para el Programa de Fertilizantes de la FAO. La primera edición fue publicada en 1965, la tercera edición en 1978, y su reimpresión en 1986. Para esta nueva, edición 2002, la mayor parte del texto de 1978 ha sido completamente revisado. La información sobre nuevos desarrollos técnicos y conocimientos ha sido incorporada. La guía explica la necesidad de los fertilizantes minerales, su rol e n las plantas y las características del suelo que son importantes para la fertilización. Una nueva sección aporta las recomendaciones generales para cultivos seleccionados. El capítulo sobre «Cómo determinar las necesidades de fertilizantes» incluye información sobre los síntomas de deficiencia y análisis de suelo y de los tejidos de las plantas. Un capítulo es dedicado a explicar y dar sugerencias sobre la presentación de demostraciones de fertilizantes y de las técnicas de ex tensión en general. Las recomendaciones para cultivos seleccionados están basadas en gran parte en IFA «Manual Mundial sobre el Uso de Fertilizantes», 1992. Una información más detallada se encuentra en el Manual disponible en IFA, París *. Inclusive la información mucho más completa dada en el Manual a menudo requerirá modificaciones por el usuario para tomar en cuenta las recomendaciones oficiales de los fertilizantes para los cultivos y suelos locales. -
