DocumentFactsheetLucha contra las enfermedades animales en Zimbabwe - TCP/ZIM/3502 2018A pesar de la gran riqueza de recursos naturales y una tierra excepcionalmente adecuada para la plantación de una amplia variedad de cultivos y la cría de ganado, Zimbabwese enfrenta a problemas de inseguridad alimentaria y ha experimentado un declive económico durante decenios. La ganadería es la principal actividad agropecuaria del país y desempeña un papel fundamental en los medios de vida de los pequeños agricultores, especialmente en las zonas rurales. El sector pecuario tiene un enorme potencial de crecimiento y podría contribuir, en general, al desarrollo rural, el crecimiento sostenible y la disminución de la pobreza, pero se ve obstaculizado por un nivel bajo de productividad y una tasa alta de morbilidad y mortalidad por enfermedades. Este proyecto estaba dirigido a crear un sector pecuario en pequeñas explotaciones agrícolas más productivo a través del mejoramiento de la sanidad y la producción pecuarias y el control de las enfermedades animales en dos distritos, a saber: Lupaney Nkayi.

DocumentFactsheetCombatting animal diseases in Zimbabwe - TCP/ZIM/3502 2018By engaging farmers, technical staff, and public institutions in capacity building and awareness raising, the project enhanced the recognition, prevention and control of tick-borne diseases (TBDs) and transboundary animal diseases (TADs) among stakeholders. Cattle vaccines were procured and administered, and materials on animal diseases were produced in English and IsiNdebele and disseminated in target districts. Farmer and staff training activities on sampling of TADs, tick collection and identification, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and acaricideresistance testing were carried out, and the production of TBD vaccines was initiated.

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018. -

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.
