MeetingMeeting documentLa situation de l'alimentation et de l'agriculture dans la région Asie et Pacifique, y compris sous l'angle des perspectives et des nouveaux enjeux 2018Dans l’ensemble, la région Asie et Pacifique a accompli de remarquables progrès en matière de réduction de l’insécurité alimentaire et de la malnutrition, par rapport aux niveaux qui prévalaient au milieu des années 1960. Le développement de l’agriculture, notamment la culture, l’élevage, la pêche (croissance bleue) et les forêts, a joué un rôle important pour rendre ces progrès possibles. Le document propose une description analytique du processus qui a permis à la région de parvenir à la situation actuelle. Il présente une analyse des différentes approches adoptées par les gouvernements dans la région pour favoriser le développement agricole, la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition, afin d’expliquer les différences constatées entre les pays en matière de sécurité alimentaire et de nutrition. Les enseignements tirés de ces expériences permettent, d’une part, d’évaluer les perspectives concernant la réalisation des Objectifs de développement durable (ODD), en particulier l’ODD 2, et, d’autre part, de s’attaquer aux nouveaux défis que sont le changement climatique, les maladies et ravageurs endémiques et émergents ou leurs vecteurs, l’urbanisation et, enfin, le vieillissement de la population. Les délégués sont invités à échanger leurs points de vue, à faire part de leurs expériences dans leurs pays, à mettre en commun des informations sur la situation de la région en matière de sécurité alimentaire et à présenter des idées et des suggestions pour atteindre les ODD.

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)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. -
