Synopsis (short abstract) The FAO Yearbook of Forest Products is a compilation of statistical data on basic forest products for all countries and territories of the world. It contains series of annual data on the volume of production and the volume and value of trade in forest products. It includes tables showing direction of trade and average unit values of trade for certain products. Statistical information in the yearbook is based primarily on data provided to the FAO Forestry Department by the countries through quest ionnaires or official publications. In the absence of official data, FAO makes an estimate based on the best information available.

The FAO yearbook of fishery statistics: Aquaculture production is a compilation of statistics on world production of fish, crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic animals and plants produced from all culture practices. The data were formerly published yearly in FAO Fisheries Circular No. 815 (and following revisions up to No. 11). The statistics, in quantity and value, are presented by country or territory, species, culture environment and year, and for various aggregations. In order to provide complete coverage of aquaculture production statistics throughout the world, where officially reported national statistics are lacking or are considered unreliable, FAO makes estimates based on the best information available.

In order to provide complete coverage of catch statistics throughout the world, where officially-reported national statistics are lacking or are considered unreliable, FAO makes estimates based on the best information available.

Behind the new-look Non-Wood News is the usual wealth of information from the world of NWFPs. The Special Features section covers two different aspects of NWFPs: a specific product (bamboo) and a developing market (cosmetics and beauty care). Bamboo is versatile: it can be transformed, for example, into textiles, charcoal, vinegar, green plastic or paper and can also be used as a food source, a deodorant, an innovative building material and to fuel power stations. Reports indicate that natural c osmetics and beauty care are a huge global market, with forecasts indicating an annual growth of 9 percent through 2008. The Special Feature on Forest cosmetics: NWFP use in the beauty industry builds on this and includes information industry interest and marketing strategies (consumers are being drawn to natural products and thus their content is emphasized). As can be seen from the articles on shea butter in Africa and thanakha in Myanmar, many societies have always used and benefited from nat ural cosmetics. This issue includes other examples of traditional knowledge, such as the uses of the secretions of a poisonous tree frog in Brazil and the use by the traditional healers in India of allelopathic knowledge.
