Cattle and poultry sectors
2018Also available in:
No results found.This brief summarises available evidence on the impact of cattle and poultry on the environment in Kenya, building on available research reports and papers. It explores the correlations between livestock and greenhouse gases; livestock and water; livestock and grasslands; and livestock and biodiversity. When data is available, it provides specific evidence of the impact of cattle and poultry production systems on the environment. These were characterized by national stakeholders - including the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources and the Ministry of Health - as part of the implementation of a One Health approach aimed at assessing the current and long-term impact of livestock on the economy and people’s livelihoods, on public health and on the environment. -

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. -

Africa Sustainable Livestock (ASL) 2050
2018Also available in:
No results found.The Kenyan cattle and poultry sectors widely affect society. They contribute to livelihoods, provide food and nutrition, are a major consumer of natural resources, and cause public health threats through zoonoses. The cattle and poultry sectors are anticipated to undergo rapid growth and transformation in the coming decades, because of the anticipated population and economic growth, which will provide major incentives for increased production and productivity in the livestock sector. The longer-term future of Kenyan livestock, and of the cattle and poultry sectors in particular, is still in the making and can be shaped by informed decisions taken today. To understand what different trajectories of the transformation of the cattle and poultry sectors might imply, we must review the current impact of different systems today. This brief is a summary on the current impacts of cattle and poultry systems on the livelihoods, environment and public health. -
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.
