Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureDiagnosing Tropical Race 4 from field to lab
TR4 Global Network - An initiative of the World Banana Forum
2020Early detection and diagnosis of the presence of Tropical Race 4 (TR4), combined with rapid destruction of infected banana plants and on-farm restrictions, are the only ways to control and contain the disease-causing fungus. Process on how to diagnose TR4 – From field to lab outlines some actions farmers/growers can take to recognize the symptoms of TR4. These include: always keep an eye out for TR4; notify authorities such as the National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO) to report any suspected TR4 signs and symptoms; await relevant authorities for specialized inspection; facilitate the collection of samples that can be packaged, labelled, and sent with a secure chain of custody to a specialised laboratory; and ensure laboratory testing, which, alone, can truly confirm a TR4 outbreak. Other possible diagnoses of plants afflicted with TR4-like symptoms are also outlined in the document. Sometimes, what was initially suspected to be TR4 turns out to be a different disease or natural phenomenon. In any case all suspected cases should be treated as potentially hazardous. -

Réseau mondial sur la TR4 – Une initiative du Forum mondial de la banane
2020La détection et le diagnostic précoces de la présence de la souche tropicale 4 (TR4), combinés à la destruction rapide des bananiers infectés et aux restrictions dans les exploitations, sont les seuls moyens de contrôler et de contenir le champignon responsable de la maladie. Processus de diagnostic du TR4 - Du champ au laboratoire décrit certaines mesures que les agriculteurs et les producteurs peuvent prendre pour reconnaître les symptômes du TR4. Il s'agit notamment de : être toujours en alerte relativement au TR4; notifier aux autorités telles que l'Organisation Nationale de la Protection des Végétaux (ONPV) tout signe et symptôme de TR4 suspecté; attendre que les autorités compétentes procèdent à une inspection spécialisée; faciliter la collecte d'échantillons qui peuvent être emballés, étiquetés et envoyés avec une chaîne de contrôle sécurisée à un laboratoire spécialisé et assurer des tests de laboratoire, qui, seuls, peuvent véritablement confirmer un foyer de TR4. D'autres diagnostics possibles de plantes atteintes de symptômes de type TR4 sont également décrits dans le document. Il se peut que certains soupçons de TR4 révèlent en réalité une maladie différente ou un phénomène naturel. Quoi qu’il en soit, tous les cas suspects doivent être traités comme potentiellement dangereux. -

TR4 Global Network - An initiative of the World Banana Forum
2020Also available in:
The purpose of the infographic What is Tropical Race 4 (TR4)? is to inform the general public on the nature of the Tropical race 4 (TR4) with some key facts on its origins and how it spreads. One fact that is emphasized is that TR4 is not harmful to humans and does not affect the fruit itself. Support is needed for disease management and recovery in affected countries as well as for international collaboration and national actions. This is one of a pair of two infographics on TR4 and its prevention. -

DocumentOther documentISPM 38. International movement of seeds
Adopted 2017
2021This standard provides guidance to assist national plant protection organizations (NPPOs) in identifying, assessing and managing the pest risk associated with the international movement of seeds (as a commodity). The standard also provides guidance on procedures to establish phytosanitary import requirements to facilitate the international movement of seeds; on inspection, sampling and testing of seeds; and on the phytosanitary certification of seeds for export and re-export. Under ISPM 5 (Glossary of phytosanitary terms) seeds (as a commodity) are intended for planting and not for consumption. Viable seeds, which are a sample of a seed lot, imported for laboratory testing or destructive analysis are also addressed by this standard. This standard does not apply to grain or vegetative plant parts (e.g. tubers of potatoes). -
Book (stand-alone)Technical reportFree Prior and Informed Consent: An indigenous peoples’ right and a good practice for local communities 2016
This Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) Manual is designed as a tool for project practitioners of a broad range of projects and programmes of any development organization, by providing information about the right to FPIC and how it can be implemented in six steps.
In an FPIC process, the “how”, “when” and “with and by whom”, are as important as “what” is being proposed. For an FPIC process to be effective and result in consent or lack of it, the way in which the process is conducted is paramount. The time allocated for the discussions among the indigenous peoples, the cultural appropriateness of the way the information is conveyed, and the involvement of the whole community, including key groups like women, the elderly and the youth in the process, are all essential. A thorough and well carried FPIC process helps guarantee everyone’s right to self-determination, allowing them to participate in decisions that affect their lives.
This FPIC Manual will ena ble field practitioners to incorporate FPIC into project and programmes’ design and implementation, ensuring that indigenous peoples’ rights are duly respected. FPIC can be considered the “gold standard” because it allows for the highest form of participation of local stakeholders in development projects.

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The 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.
