Book (series)Flagship粮食及 农业状况 2006年
粮食援助促进粮食安全?
2006《2006年粮食和农业状况》围绕国际粮食援助审查了有关的问题和争议，并力求找到各种途径，以保持其基本的人道主义作用同时尽量减少有害次要影响。粮食援助拯救了千百万生命，这种赞誉是正确的；事实上，唯一能阻止弱势人口死亡的往往是粮食援助。然而粮食援助受到了尖锐的批评，认为它是由捐助者推动的一种反应，造成受援者的依赖，伤害可持续粮食安全依靠的当地农业生产者和贸易商。关于这些问题的经济证据少得惊人，但却证实粮食援助的时间安排和对象确定是实现近期粮食安全目标同时尽量减少可能危害的核心。改革国际粮食援助体制有其必要，但应谨慎从事，因为人命关天。

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookRussian Federation: Meat sector review
Country highlights prepared under the FAO/EBRD Cooperation
2014Also available in:
World food demand has seen massive changes, including a shift from staple foods to animal proteins and vegetable oils. In the short to medium term, this trend in global food demand will continue. There will be an increased demand for vegetable oils, meat, sugar, dairy products and livestock feed made from coarse grains and oilseed meals. There are numerous mid-term forecasts for the Russian Federation’s meat sector. Most of them agree on the following trends: (i) the consumption of poultry and p ork meat will increase; (ii) the consumption of beef will decrease or stabilize; and (iii) the Russian Federation will remain a net importer of meat on the world market. According to OECD and FAO projections, meat imports from the Russian Federation will decrease from 3 to 1.3 million tonnes, owing to an anticipated growth in domestic chicken meat and pork production. The country’s share in global meat imports is anticipated to decrease from 12 percent in 2006–2010, to 4 percent in 2021. While t he Russian Federation will continue to play an important role in the international meat market, it will fall from its position as the largest meat importing country in 2006–2010 to the fourth largest global meat importer by 2021, behind Japan, sub-Saharan African countries, and Saudi Arabia.
