No Poverty
The State of Food and Agriculture 1954
Review and Outlook
The present report reviews the more recent developments in the world food and agricultural situation and also the immediate outlook. In 1953/54 world production continued to expand. Surpluses, especially of wheat, became more burdensome in some areas, and in these areas farm prices and farm incomes tended to decline. In other parts of the world, however, supplies Were not excessive and efforts to expand production were continued and in some cases intensified. The outlook- for 1954/55 suggests no essential change in this situation, which is summarized in Chapter I of the report and reviewed more fully on a world basis in Chapter II.

The State of Food and Agriculture 1955
Review of a Decade and Outlook
The year 1955 marks the tenth anniversary of the foundation of FAO. It marks also the end of the first decade of agricultural recovery and expansion after the second world war. Unlike its predecessors, this issue does not deal mainly with the current situation and short-term outlook, but instead reviews the progress and experiences of the whole decade. The treatment of this theme has been analytic rather than purely descriptive. An attempt has been made to bring out the underlying causes of the main postwar developments, and to make some appraisal of the results achieved.

Frente a un Mundo Cambiante - las Mujeres, la Población y el Clima
El mundo entero ha estado hablando de los créditos de carbono, el trueque de emisiones de carbono y las metas para las emisiones. No se ha dicho lo suficiente con respecto a las personas que contribuir a tales emisiones, ni acerca de quienes han de resultar más afectados por el cambio climático, especialmente las mujeres. ¿Cómo afecta la dinámica de la población a la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero y al cambio climático? La urbanización y el envejecimiento de la población, ¿reforzarán u obstacularizarán las medidas de adaptación a un mundo que se está calentando? Y ¿podrían una mejor atención de la salud reproductiva y unas mejores relaciones entre mujeres y hombres lograr una diferencia en la lucha contra el cambio climático? A menos que las políticas relativas al clima tengan en cuenta a las personas, no lograrán mitigar el cambio climático ni proteger a las poblaciones vulnerables contra efectos potencialmente desastrosos.

From Conflict and Crisis to Renewal - Generations of Change
In 2000, the United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 1325, recognizing the vulnerability of women and girls to violence during and after armed conflict, and the absence (or low level) of women’s representation in efforts to prevent war, build peace and restore devastated societies. This Report highlights how women in conflict and post-conflict situations — as well as in emergencies or protracted crises — are faring a decade later. It is constructed around interviews and reporting in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Haiti, Jordan, Liberia, the Palestinian territory of the West Bank, Timor-Leste and Uganda, which are rebuilding with limited resources. Some have experienced profound social changes as a result of war and displacement.
Les Enfants de la Récession
Impact de la Crise Économique sur le Bien-Être des Enfants dans les Pays Riches
Les données et observations de ce Bilan Innocenti révèlent des relations fortes et multiples entre l’impact de la Grande Récession sur les économies nationales et le déclin du bien-être des enfants depuis 2008. Les enfants souffrent plus et subissent des conséquences plus durables dans les pays où la récession a été la plus marquée. Dans chaque pays, la gravité de la récession, les conditions économiques antérieures, la solidité des dispositifs de protection sociale, et surtout les mesures prises par le gouvernement ont déterminé l’ampleur et la nature des effets de la crise sur les enfants. Étonnamment, malgré cette crise sociale sans précédent, de nombreux pays ont réussi à limiter, voire à réduire, la pauvreté des enfants. Il existait donc des moyens d’éviter que les enfants soient les victimes les plus durables de la récession.

La Promesa de Igualdad - Equidad de Gènero, Salud Reproductiva y Objetivos de Desarrollo del Milenio
¿Cómo podremos mejorar las vidas de casi 3.000 millones de personas que viven con menos de dos dólares por día? ¿Cómo salvaremos las vidas de más de 500.000 mujeres que cada año mueren en el parto? ¿Qué será necesario para demostrar a los jóvenes sumidos en la pobreza que el desarrollo los beneficiará y que pueden tener esperanzas en el futuro? Probablemente por primera vez en la historia, ésas no son preguntas formuladas en vano. Tienen respuestas, y esas respuestas atañen a la esencia misma de lo que significa ser un hombre o una mujer, ser rico o ser pobre.

Harnessing Agricultural Trade for Sustainable Development: Malawi
Groundnuts, Sunflower and Soybeans
This study is part of a series of UNCTAD publications that focus on upgrading and diversifying specific agricultural sectors of rural economies in developing countries with a view to raising living standards among of smallholder farmers in a context of sustainable development, female empowerment and food security. Malawi is a Least Developed Country (LDC) where 70 per cent of its population live below the international poverty line of US$1.90 per day. Tobacco has traditionally been its principal export earner, with maize as a subsistence crop. A decline in tobacco exports due to health concerns has made it imperative to identify other promising agricultural sectors as a means of increasing foreign exchange earnings to support development. In this context, the government has highlighted sunflower, groundnut and soybean as priority sectors. The three crops offer a range of practical advantages: in crop cultivation through intercropping which adds to soil fertility; in value addition, offering a potential to tap into markets of edible oils and livestock feed; and, in diversifying away from traditional crops such as tobacco and maize, it allows the country to reduce its exposure to market shocks and climate change. This study analyses the three sectors in terms of opportunities derived from exports of primary and processed products, within a context of regional integration and LDC preferential access to developed country markets. It provides detailed information on the current and evolving trading regime between Malawi and its close regional partners, with a focus on both formal and informal trade, given that the latter accounts for a significant proportion of the country’s overall trade and notably involves female traders.
The State of Food and Agriculture 2014
Innovation in Family Farming
More than 500 million family farms manage the majority of the world’s agricultural land and produce most of the world’s food. We need family farms to ensure global food security, to care for and protect the natural environment and to end poverty, undernourishment and malnutrition. But these goals can be thoroughly achieved if public policies support family farms to become more productive and sustainable. This edition of the The State of Food and Agriculture analyses family farms and the role of innovation in ensuring global food security, poverty reduction and environmental sustainability. It argues that family farms must be supported to innovate in ways that promote sustainable intensification of production and improvements in rural livelihoods. Innovation is a process through which farmers improve their production and farm management practices.
