No results found.Poultry production, and its associated activities, account for around one percent of Indonesia’s gross domestic product and provide the majority of animal protein consumed by 232 million Indonesians. A complex array of poultry enterprises, ranging from intensive commercial enterprises, to small-scale semi-intensive broiler and layer enterprises, to small backyard flockssupply poultry meat and eggs to Indonesian consumers, predominantly through around 13,000 traditional markets countrywide. Some 60% of all Indonesian households keep poultry for food, additional income, entertainment and ceremonial purposes. Since Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza(HPAI) was detected in Indonesia in 2003, the disease has infected poultry in 31 out of 33 provinces, caused the deaths of millions of poultry, and disrupted the livelihoods of large numbers of people dependent on poultry keeping. Outbreaks continue to be reported regularly on islands with dense human and poultry populations, such as Java and Sumatra. HPAI presents a major challenge to the country. An annualized poultry population of approximately 1.5 billion, a large culturally and ethnically diverse human population of around 232 million, a preference for purchasing poultry products from live bird markets, and a decentralized governance system, which has included devolution of the responsibility for controlling animal diseases to more than 450 autonomous districts/municipalities, have all contributed to the persistence of the di sease. The FAO Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) Indonesia works to enhance the capacity and ability of the Government of Indonesia to implement its Avian InfluenzaControl Programme to sustainably control HPAI in order to help safeguard the health and livelihoods of the Indonesian population and reduce the global pandemic threat. This 2009 Annual Report provides an overview of the FAO activities carried out in collaboration with and in support of the Ministry of Agr iculture and local government livestock services in Indonesia. Achievements in the key areas of enhanced management of the HPAI control programme; improved surveillance, control and prevention of HPAI in village-based poultry, in the commercial poultry industry and along the poultry marketing chain are presented. The activities and achievements described in this report were funded by many donors and their contribution and commitment are gratefully acknowledged. -

No results found.Poultry production and the raising of hobby birds are an integral part of Indonesian society. In cities and villages throughout the archipelago communities raise backyard poultry for both profitand pleasure. The poultry industry is one of the key areas of Indonesia’s agriculture and supports a large domestic market in poultry and poultry products. Highly pathogenic avian influenza(HPAI) remains a major threat to poultry and communities in Indonesia. Since it was firstdetected in poultry in 20 03, millions of poultry have died due to HPAI or been depopulated during control activities. In addition, the livelihoods of people dependent on the poultry industry have been disrupted. To the end of 2008, AI had infected poultry in 31 out of 33 provinces. The Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture has been in the front line of the response to HPAI and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has worked alongside the Ministry since 2005. The activities undertaken this ye ar have laid a firmfoundation for establishing a comprehensive HPAI prevention and control programme. Improving biosecurity and husbandry and trading practices will contribute to an overall improvement to poultry health and production. This will directly contribute to improved food security, food safety and welfare of the Indonesian people. This 2008 Annual Report for the FAO Avian InfluenzaControl Programme in Indonesia provides an overview of the FAO activities, carried out in collaboration w ith and in support of local governments and Ministry of Agriculture (MoA). Achievements in the four key areas of campaign management, local government surveillance and control activities, local government Information, Education and Communication (IEC) and prevention activities, and research and development are presented. The activities and achievements described in this report were funded by many donors and their contribution and commitment is gratefully acknowledged. -

Since Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) was detected in Indonesia in 2003, the disease has infected poultry in 32 out of 33 provinces, caused the deaths of millions of poultry, and disrupted the livelihoods of large numbers of people dependent on poultry keeping. Outbreaks continue to be reported regularly on islands with dense human and poultry populations, such as Java and Sumatra, an d more sporadically in Sulawesi and Bali. HPAI continues to present a major challenge to poultry pro-duction. An annualized poultry population of approximately 1.5 billion, a large culturally and ethnically diverse human population of around 232 million, a preference for purchasing poultry products from live bird markets, and a decentralized governance system, have all contributed to the persistence of the disease. The FAO Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) Indonesia works to enhance the capacity and ability of the Government of Indonesia to implement its Avian Influenza Control Programme to sustainably control HPAI at village level, in the commercial poultry industry and along the market chain in order to help safeguard the health and livelihoods of the Indonesian population and reduce the global pandemic threat. Rabies is endemic in several parts of Indonesia. Bali had been rabies free until rabies was fist confimed in humans on 23 November 2008 and in a dog on 28 November 2008. From No-vember 2008 to the present, 139 human cases of rabies and 643 rabies cases in dogs have been reported. As Bali had been rabies free, there was a general low level of awareness and knowledge on management and control of the disease. Ths posed a substantial threat to the people living in Bali and the tourists that flck to the island every year, as well as a challenge to the local government animal and public health services. In February 2011 ECTAD In-donesia w as requested by the Director General of Livestock and Animal Health Services to assist in developing a revised strategy for rabies control and to provide strategic support to the rabies control programme in Bali. FAO developed a Programme of three rabies projects with the DGLAHS, funded through the FAO Indonesia country programme, AusAID and USAID. Ths 2011 Annual Report provides an overview of the activities carried out under the ECTAD Programme in collaboration with and in support of the Mini stry of Agriculture and local govern-ment livestock services in Indonesia to control both HPAI and rabies. Achievements in HPAI control across the key theme areas of improving poultry health, public private partnerships, capacity building and strengthening veterinary services are presented. Ac-tivities related to the rabies programme are presented under the capacity building and strengthening veterinary services themes. The activities and achievements described in this report were funded by man y donors and their contribution and commitment are gratefully acknowledged.

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. -
