FAO Statistical Yearbook 2013
breaks down myriads of numbers
into four broad thematic
categories:
• The setting measures the state of theagricultural resource base, assessingthe supply of land, labour, capital,inputs and the state of infrastructure
• Hunger dimensions gauges the stateof food insecurity and malnutrition
• Feeding the world evaluates thepast and present capacity of worldagriculture
• Sustainability dimensions examines agriculture in terms of thepressure it exerts on the environment,including the interaction of agriculturewith climate change
“ Good statistics are needed to monitor the progress of development.The better the data, the better policies can be designed to protectvulnerable populations. And, without good data, it is impossibleto evaluate or determine the impact of policies.”
José Graziano da Silva
FAO Director-General
Highlights from the 2013
edition include:
• About 12 percent of the world’s landarea is used for crop production
• Around 870 million people -or one in eight people in the world -are undernourished
• For the world as a whole, per capitafood supply rose from about 2 200kcal/day in the early 1960s to morethan 2 800 kcal/day by 2009
• The land sector is responsible fornearly 30 percent of all human-
induced GHG emissions into theatmosphere

Global food production capacity is sufficient to feed the world’s current population, yet
FAO’s latest estimates indicate that almost 870 million people are undernourished in
terms of energy intake. Efforts to eliminate world hunger are complicated by a number
of complex global challenges, including a rapidly increasing population, urbanization,
globalization and its effects on agriculture, pressure on natural resources, climate
and environmental changes, and a rise in resulting disasters and emergencies.
In the face of these challenges, FAO is focusing its entire work effort on five
overarching objectives:
• Eradicate hunger, together with food insecurity and malnutrition
• Make agriculture more productive, yet more sustainable
• Reduce rural poverty
• Create agricultural and food systems that are at once more inclusive and efficient• Build the resilience of livelihoods to disasters and emergencies
As a specialized UN agency and knowledge organization, FAO has a well-established
and broad-ranging publishing programme, and we are continuing to build on this
with an increasingly dynamic and interdisciplinary range of titles in direct support
of the Organization’s strategic objectives.
In this catalogue you will find a rich body of technical studies, guidelines, outlooks
and topical reports on major issues at the centre of international development
debate and policy change. In line with FAO’s commitment to open access publishing,all catalogue and most backlist titles are freely downloadable in PDF format from
www.fao.org /docrep, while new arrangements with a number of content aggregators
and publishing partners are expanding access to FAO titles even further. A recent
rise in the number of FAO depository libraries is another indicator of the worldwide
demand for our publications and reflects the country focus as well as the global
scope of FAO’s overall publishing programme.
Our main aim is to deliver FAO’s content in the way that best suits individual
users’ needs, no matter where they are located. This year we have accelerated
efforts to tailor information and data products for delivery on a wide range of mobile
devices, and there has been an encouraging response to our recently launched e-book
programme (see catalogue entries flagged with the e-book icon). New e-book titles
will be added over the coming months, as will selected mobile applications designed
to offer core information and data at the right time and in the right place.
We encourage you to keep up to date on these and other FAO publishing
developments at www.fao.org/publications.

Public Health Risks ofHistamine and otherBiogenic Amines fromFish and FisheryProducts
Report of a joint FAO/WHOExpert Meeting and Histamine
Sampling Tool (version 1.0)
Codex Alimentarius through itsstandards and guidelines aimsto provide countries with tools tomanage food safety issues suchas histamine in fish. Togetherwith guidance on good practices,
different histamine limits have beenestablished by Codex as indicators ofdecomposition and as indicators ofhygiene and handling. However, manyof these limits were established ina pre-risk assessment era and theirscientific basis is unclear. As foodsafety management moves towardsmore risk- and evidence- basedapproaches, there is a need to reviewexisting limits to ensure that theyare scientifically based and take into
account all the available evidence. Atthe request of Codex, FAO and WHOconvened an expert meeting at theFAO headquarters in Rome from 23– 27 July 2012 to address the publichealth risks of histamine and otherbiogenic amines from fish and fisheryproducts. This report summarises theoutcome of that meeting.

The World of Livestock 2013: Changing
Disease Landscapes looks at the evidence ofchanging disease dynamics involving livestockand explores three key areas:• the Pressure, including drivers and risk
factors that contribute to disease emergence,spread and persistence;
• the State, describing the disease dynamicsthat result from the Pressure and theirsubsequent impact
• and the Response, required both to adaptand improve the State and to mitigate the
Pressure.
The report argues that a comprehensiveapproach, the One Health approach, is neededto face the complexities of the changing diseaselandscapes, giving greater emphasis on agro-ecological resilience, protection of biodiversity,efcient use of natural resources and ensure saferfood supply chains particularly in areas worstaficted by poverty and animal disease. Speedingup response times, by early detection and
reaction, including at the driver level, is essential.
Highlights from World of Livestock 2013:Changing Disease Landscapes include:• Livestock dynamics are a major determinant
in global health, including human, animal andenvironment health
• Four different diseases complexes areanalyzed that relate changing disease patternsto factors of global change (e.g. urbanization,climate change, intensication)
• Major social, economic and environmentalbenets can be generated from moreintegrated control measures.

In vivo conservationof Animal GeneticResources
In vivo conservation encompassesa range of actions that can betaken to ensure the survival oflivestock breeds or populationsthat are threatened with extinction.These guidelines address both “insitu” conservation (supporting thecontinued use of threatened breedsin the livestock production systemswhere they have traditionally beenraised) and “ex situ” conservation(maintenance of populations
at sites such as conservationfarms and zoos). As well asproviding a wealth of informationon breeding strategies for smallat-risk populations, the guidelinesprovide advice on how to develop aneffective and well-targeted nationalconservation strategy.

These roles change over time,have different characteristics inevery local context and are shapedby ideological, religious, cultural,ethnic and economic factors.They are a key determinant inthe distribution of resources andresponsibilities between men andwomen. Recognizing the differentroles that women and men playin the agriculture sector is key toidentifying the diverse challengesthey face and tailoring projects andprogrammes to their specific needs.

Global programmefor the preventionand control of highlypathogenic avianinfluenza
Fifth report: January 2011 –January 2012
This report will be the last tofocus primarily on the HPAI globalprogramme. Since early 2011, FAOhas taken a broad, multisectoral,collaborative One Health approachand is currently implementingthe strategic Action Plan (AP)2011–2015, entitled SustainableAnimal Health and ContainedAnimal-Related Human Health Risks– in support of the emerging OneHealth agenda. The AP extends HPAIlessons learned to other animaldiseases that threaten animal andhuman health, rural populationsand livelihoods. The AP’s goal is toestablish a robust global animalhealth system that effectivelymanages major animal health risks,
paying particular attention to theanimal-human-ecosystem interface,and placing disease dynamics intothe broader context of agricultureand socio-economic developmentand environmental sustainability.

Invisible GuardiansWomen manage livestock
diversity
This publication presents ananalysis of women’s role in thesustainable use, development andconservation of animal geneticresources. The importance ofsmall-scale famers and pastoralistsas custodians of these resourcesis well recognized, but has neverpreviously been disaggregatedby gender. The differential roles ofmen and women have largely beenneglected in studies of animal
genetic resources management, butby piecing together several strandsof argument and indirect evidenceit can be concluded that womenare the main guardians of livestockdiversity.

Regulatoryframeworks forcontrol of HPAI andother TADs
This handbook adopts the principlesand approach of One Health bycreating an understanding of thecontext in which diseases emerge,and by presenting the two keyissues – legislation and regulatoryframeworks – for the attentionof administrators and policy-makers. It explains the critical roleof regulatory frameworks (policyand institutional) on animal health
and the need for close cooperationwithin countries between peoplewho have technical veterinaryexpertise and those who have legaland regulatory expertise. It furtherdefines the structure and elementsof veterinary policy and legislation,the international frame of reference,the interface between veterinarypolicy, institutions and legislation,and the potential impacts of thenational legal tradition on the way
that laws are drafted specifically onanimal health matters.

As climate change brings newuncertainties, risks and changesto already existing risks, one of themost efficient ways for agriculture toadapt is by increasing its resilience.A joint FAO/OECD workshop washeld in April 2012 to address theseissues in different agro-ecologicaland socio-economic contexts, and
to illustrate how building resilienceis critical to adapting to climatechange. The various sessions of theworkshop questioned the notion ofresilience, confronting concepts,specific risk management strategies,case studies and national policies,from different perspectives -biophysical, economic, or social andinstitutional - and at various scales,from farm and household to nationaland global. This publication bringstogether and summarizes the paperspresented at the workshop.

Malnutrition in all its forms –undernutrition, micronutrientdeficiencies, and overweight andobesity – imposes unacceptablyhigh economic and social costson countries at all income levels.Improving nutrition and reducingthese costs requires a multisectoralapproach that begins with foodand agriculture and includescomplementary interventions in
public health and education. Thetraditional role of agriculture inproducing food and generatingincome is fundamental, but theentire food system – from inputsand production, through processing,storage, transport and retailing,to consumption – can contributemuch more to the eradication ofmalnutrition.

Serbia – Sugarsector review
Sugar production has increased
dramatically over the past ten yearsand reached almost 500 000 tonnesin the 2010/11 crop year. The mainreasons for this recovery are theprivatization of the sugar sector andgaining of preferential access to theEuropean Union (EU) market, bothof which occurred early in the lastdecade. Since then, the Serbian sugarindustry has also gained preferentialaccess to markets in neighboringcountries through the Central
European Free Trade Area (CEFTA).However, the fortunes of the sugarindustry will depend largely on threefactors: (i) the future level of worldsugar prices (which will influenceprice levels in Serbia’s main markets),(ii) the price at which farmers will bewilling to grow beets and (iii) its levelof access to the EU.

Enablingenvironments foragribusiness andagro-industriesdevelopment
Regional and countryperspectives
The existence of a conducivebusiness climate, or enablingenvironment, is considered essentialto engender economic growth anddevelopment. However, what “anenabling environment” shouldencompass in practical termsremains elusive to many scholarsand policy makers, particularlywhen discussed at the sub-sectorlevel. This publication examinesissues associated with enablingenvironments with a focus onagribusiness and agro-industrialsectors, which have not yet had theirpeculiar characteristics sufficientlyexamined in traditional appraisals ofbusiness climates.

The State of FoodInsecurity in theWorld 2012Economic growth is necessary
but not sufficient to accelerate
reduction of hunger andmalnutrition
The State of Food Insecurity in theWorld 2012 presents new estimatesof undernourishment based on arevised and improved methodology.These show that progress inreducing hunger during the past20 years has been better thanpreviously believed, and that, givenrenewed efforts, it may be possibleto reach the MDG hunger target atthe global level by 2015. However,the number of people suffering fromchronic undernourishment is stillunacceptably high, and eradicationof hunger remains a major globalchallenge. The 2012 report alsohighlights the importance ofsustainable agricultural growthin reducing undernourishment
in rural areas. Other policies andprogrammes that will ensure“nutrition-sensitive” growth includesupporting increased dietarydiversity, improving access to safedrinking water, sanitation and healthservices, and educating consumersregarding adequate nutrition andchildcare practices.

Site selection andcarrying capacitiesfor inland and coastalaquacultureFAO/Institute of Aquaculture,
University of Stirling, ExpertWorkshop, 6-8 December 2012
An FAO-sponsored Expert Workshopon Site Selection and CarryingCapacities for Inland and CoastalAquaculture was held at the Instituteof Aquaculture, University of Stirling(UK) in 2010. Definitions of carryingcapacity for different types ofaquaculture were discussed andagreed upon, on the basis of fourcategories: physical, production,ecological and social. The rangeand capability of modelling tools,including spatial tools, available foraddressing these capacities werealso examined. The prioritizationand sequence for addressingsite selection and the differentcategories of carrying capacity wereconsidered in detail in terms of both
regional or national priorities andsite-specific considerations.

Review of jellyfishblooms in theMediterranean andBlack Sea
In the past decade, the media hasreported increasingly high numbersof gelatinous plankton blooms,with thousands of tourists stung,fisheries harmed or even impairedby jellyfish that eat fish eggs andlarvae, and coastal plants stoppedby gelatinous masses. A new typeof human approach to marineecosystems is clearly needed toconfront issues such as jellyfish
blooms. This updated overviewreviews current knowledge ongelatinous plankton in the affectedregion, providing a frameworkfor its inclusion into fisheriesscience and the management ofhuman activities such as tourismand coastal development. Thisdocument stems from the Workshopon Algal and Jellyfish Blooms inthe Mediterranean and Black Sea,organized by the General Fisheries

World aquaculture2010
The global production of fish
from aquaculture has grownsubstantially during the pastdecade and aquaculture continuesto be the fastest growing animalfood producing sector, currentlyaccounting for nearly half of theworld’s food fish consumption.Over the past decade, a number ofdevelopments have contributed tothis growth, namely: the formulationand implementation of betterpolicies, strategies, plans and
legislation; dissemination and use ofapplied research; and the emergenceof new domestic and internationalmarkets. This overview springsfrom a series of regional reviewsconducted in 2010 by FAO coveringAsia-Pacific, Europe, Latin Americaand the Caribbean, Near East andNorth Africa, North America and sub-Saharan Africa.

The State of WorldFisheries and
Aquaculture 2012
This edition of The State of WorldFisheries and Aquaculturehighlights the vital role of fisheriesand aquaculture in both foodand nutrition security as well aseconomic expansion. The sectorremains a major supplier of high-quality animal protein and supportsthe livelihoods and well-being ofmore than ten percent of the world’spopulation. International trade in fishhas reached new peaks as overall
production has continued to rise.Yet, as the document underlines,an array of problems – rangingfrom the need for more effectivegovernance to that of ensuringenvironmental sustainability –threatens to undermine the sector’svaluable contribution to alleviatinghunger and reducing poverty. Usingthe latest available statistics onfisheries and aquaculture, thisedition presents a global analysis of
the sector’s status and trends.
