DocumentOther documentTechno-economic feasibility study for fish smoking enterprise fisheries development project, Hurghada Red Sea Governorate 1982
Also available in:
No results found.One of the objectives of the Project for Development of Fisheries in Areas of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, is to conduct economic and investment research work and studies through the preparation of feasibility studies aiming at developing and modernizing fisheries industries in the participating countries of the project of which the Arab Republic of Egypt is a member. With this objective in mind a feasibility study (RAB/77/008/21) on the technical and economic aspects was prepared for upgrading and expanding the activities of the Fisheries Development Project in Hurghada, Red Sea Governorate. The study centred on adding new fishing units and the establishment of some shore facilities needed for improving and activating productive, servicing and marketing operations. A comprehensive and integrated study was prepared for this purpose complete with financial and economic analysis and evaluation. In response, the Red Sea Governorate has taken some positive steps to implement sections of t he study. The purchase of refrigerated transport trucks, construction of 50 tons capacity cold stores in Hurghada and the ongoing construction of an ice plant of 20 ton/day capacity are among these positive steps. Complementary to these developmental steps, and as the Fisheries Development Project constitutes the basis of planned development, this study has been prepared on the feasibility of establishing a fish smoking unit in Hurghada. -

A survey system for quick estimates of some sectors of the fishing industry
1982Also available in:
No results found.Integrated information on the infrastructure of the fishing industry can be easily obtained through the application of "Quick Estimates Surveys". Furthermore, the new strategy which had been adopted for carrying out these surveys, resulted in information that were more linked and more consistent, For instance, tables of the wholesale and retail prices besides the landed catch (by species) on the same day at Ataka and Port Tawfiq fishing sites, were the outcome of the application of this strategy . Frame Surveys showed that Suez is self-sufficient in fishing boats and ice. Detailed information on fishing craft is shown in the first eighteen tables. Catch Assessment Surveys, together with interviews that were held with the staff of the Fisheries Division, Ministry of Agriculture, Suez have proved that there is a temporary immigration of fishermen to Ataka during its fishing season (Mid Sept. - Mid June) from fisheries in other governorates. Besides, as a result of this survey, it can be c oncluded that Ataka is the most productive fishing site on the Red Sea. Results of Cost and Earning Surveys, which are very essential for investment investigation and studies, were tabulated in detail according to type of boats.

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.

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.
