    No results found.

    This report illustrates the food loss assessment studies undertaken along the maize, sunflower and beans supply chains in Uganda in 2015-16 and 2016-17. They aimed to identify the critical loss points in the selected supply chains, the key stages at which food losses occur, why they occur, the extent and impact of food losses and the economic, social and environmental implications of the food losses. Furthermore, these studies also evaluated the feasibility of potential interventions to reduce food losses and waste.

    Pocket guide to important coastal fishery species of Eritrea 2019
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    This pocket guide includes a selection of species common in the coastal marine fisheries of Eritrea and is intended to help fishery workers collecting catch data in the field in their identification. The format of the pocket guide was developed for use by non-taxonomists and to facilitate communication with practitioners (fishers and marketers). For this purpose, the most common local names are included. To aid in quick identification, the pocket guide includes a colour-coded grouping of species based on simple morphological characteristics (i.e. the size and position of the dorsal and anal fins) as well as symbols for maximum sizes, ecological preferences and catch methods.

    "Building global capacity to increase transparency in the forest sector (CBIT-Forest)” is a two-year-long FAO project under the Capacity Building Initiative for Transparency (CBIT) trust fund of the Global Environment Facility (GEF). The global project will strengthen the institutional and technical capacities of developing countries to collect, analyze and disseminate forest-related data. It will support countries in meeting the enhanced transparency framework (ETF) requirements of the Paris Agreement and contribute with information necessary to track progress made in implementing and achieving the nationally determined contributions (NDCs).
