DocumentEvaluation reportÉvaluation indépendante des travaux de la Convention internationale pour la protection des végétaux et de ses arrangements institutionnels 2005La Convention internationale pour la protection des végétaux (CIPV) est un traité international pour la santé des plantes auquel 165 États adhèrent actuellement (septembre 2007). Le secrétariat est assuré par la FAO et la Convention est administrée par la Commission des mesures phytosanitaires (CMP). L’Accord sur les mesures sanitaires et phytosanitaires (SPS) de l’OMC reconnaît la CIPV comme étant l’organisation normative internationale chargée d’élaborer des normes internationales qui permettr aient d’éviter que les mesures phytosanitaires soient utilisées comme des obstacles injustifiés au commerce. Des mesures ont donc été prises pour adapter la Convention aux nouvelles réalités. Un texte révisé a été élaboré, élargissant le champ d’application et le mandat de la Convention afin d’inclure l’établissement de normes, la promotion de l’octroi d’une assistance technique et de prendre en compte les problèmes liés à l’environnement. Le texte révisé de la CIPV a été adopté en 1997 et il es t entré en vigueur en octobre 2005.

BookletCorporate general interestCadre stratégique de la Convention Internationale pour la Protection des Végétaux (CIPV) 2020-2030
Protéger les ressources végétales mondiales et faciliter les échanges commerciaux sans danger
2021Le cadre stratégique de la Convention Internationale pour la Protection des Végétaux (CIPV) pour 2020-2030 définit les priorités et les actions de la communauté phytosanitaire mondiale pour la prochaine décennie. Le cadre stratégique a été adopté par la quinzième Commission des mesures phytosanitaires pour soutenir les organisations nationales de protection des végétaux et surmonter les défis émergents liés au commerce électronique, aux systèmes d'alerte et de réponse aux épidémies, à la coordination de la recherche internationale, et bien d’autres.

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. -
ArticleJournal articleNurturing Soil Life through Agroforestry – The Roles of Trees in the Ecological Intensification of Agriculture 2023
Also available in:
No results found.Soil resources constitute the very foundation of agriculture, so sustainable agriculture is inherently dependent on soil health. Soil health reflects the capacity of soil to respond beneficially to agricultural management, maintaining both agricultural production and the provision of varying ecosystem services, nutrient cycling, and biodiversity conservation in the long term. Soil health depends on the physical, chemical, and biological conditions of the soil that are required for plant growth and development. Ecological intensification differs from current strategies for agricultural intensification by embracing agroecological transitions to more sustainable agriculture and food systems. This chapter discusses the pivotal role that trees play in building and maintaining the soil health and functional resilience that are required for the ecological intensification of agriculture. It summarizes the current knowledge about functions and impacts of trees on soil health, and highlights the tree/soil biodiversity interactions that drive these functions. -
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.
