The development of agricultural technologies and a better appreciation of the existing but under-utilised knowledge of resource management will be crucial in meeting the ecological needs and in achieving the anticipated food demands of the growing population in the future. The greatest challenge for the coming decades lies in the fact that the production environments are unstable and degrading. Land degradation is proceeding so fast that unless policies and approaches change, many countries will not be able to achieve sustainable agriculture in the foreseeable future.
FAO organized an Expert Consultation in April 1977 with participants from countries consuming both a high and low quantity of fertilizer, to identify possibilities for a more intensive and rational utilization of the valuable plant nutrients in mineral and organic fertilizers, with emphasis on conditions in developing countries. The conclusions reached should serve interested countries as a guide for follow-up activities in the more rational use of plant nutrients at the research and practical level.
Сельское хозяйство должно в прямом смысле слова вернуться к корням, заново открыв для себя важность здоровой Почвы, использования естественных источников питания растений и разумного применения минеральных удобрений.
Slovenia joined the Organization in 1993. Since then, cooperation has involved a variety of areas concerning sustainable agriculture and rural development. Today, responsible and sustainable management of fishery and forestry resources are major areas of FAO assistance. Slovenia also plays an active role in supporting technical cooperation and humanitarian assistance in and beyond the region. Most recently, the country has promoted efforts to support beekeeping, advocating for a World Honeybee Day.
Dans ce numéro, nous examinerons les projets en cours dans le cadre du lancement d’un nouveau partenariat mondial sur les sols, une initiative ambitieuse pour soutenir les efforts entrepris au niveau mondial sur les problèmes communs de gestion des sols. Nous examinerons également un projet régional centré sur l’assistance apportée à quatre pays andins – la Bolivie, la Colombie, le Pérou et l’Equateur – sur les questions d’adaptation au changement climatique et de gestion des risques de catastrophes dans le secteur agricole.

Session: Sess. 23
This workshop was organized in the framework of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) led initiative on “Financial and institutional risk mitigation and management strategies”. This initiative stems from the lack of significant funding for the forest sector in key areas of intervention such as forest plantations, natural forest management, small and medium forest enterprises, local and community forestry, and large‐scale forest investment projects including REDD+, while private capital is available for investments.
