    This is the 19th of a series of Working Papers prepared for the Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative (PPLPI). The purpose of these papers is to explore issues related to livestock development in the context of poverty alleviation. Livestock is vital to the economies of many developing countries. Animals are a source of food, more specifically protein for human diets, income, employment and possibly foreign exchange. For low-income producers, livestock can serve as a store of wealth, provide drau ght power and organic fertiliser for crop production and a means of transport. Consumption of livestock and livestock products in developing countries, though starting from a low base, is growing rapidly.

    Evidence-Based Policy-Making to Boost the Sustainable Development of the Fisheries Sector in the Western Central Atlantic - GCP/SLC/020/EC 2023

    During the early 2010s, the Western Central Atlantic Fishery Commission (WECAFC) expressed the need for increased attention to improved fisheries data and information collection as a basis for better fisheries management in the region. Since 2015, the European Union has funded two projects supporting WECAFC in setting up the first meeting of its Fisheries Data and Statistics Working Group (FDS-WG) and in laying the foundations of a statistical data and information framework in support of fishery management. The main challenge facing this third project was to continue this regional effort, while extending support to Members for strengthened capacities in fisheries statistics. Specifically, the objectives were to support the organization of the second meeting of the FDS-WG, the operationalization of the WECAFC regional database with data submitted by countries and the strengthening of national capacities in fisheries statistics.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    Also available in:
    The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.

    Emissions due to agriculture
    Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
    2021
    Also 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.
