现在距实现可持续发展目标还剩八年时间。要在后疫情时代实现世界可持续性、复原力及粮食安全与营养目标，迫切需要推动农业粮食体系转型。实现预期转型只能通过强化和利用知识、经验、技能和能力，调动广泛的公共和私营部门参与方采取集体行动，而每一个参与方都具有各自的利益、需求、资源、影响力和能力。“治理”就是在所有各级采取有效和包容的集体行动所需的多维度能力的代名词。在许多国家的具体情况当中，正是治理方面的瓶颈造成了政策预期与实地效果之间存在差距。例如，某项政策措施可能在经济方面很有意义，但如果人们认为它威胁到某个有影响力的利益群体或未能充分兼顾该群体的利益，那么这项措施就很可能无法达到预期效果。因此把握好现有农业粮食体系背后的治理问题 — 包括制度和政治经济两方面 — 就可能成为所有政策或技术支持工作成败的关键。 本文汇总来自粮农组织丰富经验和知识以及全球文献的深刻见解，阐述了一个实操性四阶段框架，用以开展分析并把治理分析和行动整合到国家、区域和全球各级各项措施的制定和实施之中。文章还对有关可持续发展领域治理问题的近期专家思潮进行了评述并着重介绍了粮农组织在自身职责领域内对治理工作的概念性贡献。粮农组织工作中对治理分析的应用不断增加，这将推动循环往复的集体学习过程并对变革潜能进行忠实评估，从而利用在准确把握实地的实际和政策现实的基础上制定的方法对技术解决方案给予补充。治理分析强调持续学习和因地制宜，它将帮助粮农组织大大提高其对成员国政策和技术支持的有效性，推动实现可持续发展，不让任何人掉队。

Young people are key agents of change, with enormous innovation potential. FAO recognizes that youth are already at the frontline to build more sustainable agrifood systems and are best placed to rejuvenate the sector, acquire the knowledge and skills needed to innovate, uptake new technologies, and spearhead the digital transformation. The Organization provides support to countries to develop more youth-inclusive policies, strategies, investments and programmes, in order to enhance the overall well-being of young women and men. This compendium of good practices brings together snapshots of selected FAO’s youth-specific projects, activities and products in support of the Rural Youth Action [...]

A growing number of poultry farmer field schools (FFS) are being implemented in developing countries by a wide range of actors. Experience over the past two decades has shown that good-quality facilitation and learning activities are key to the success and long-term sustainability of poultry FFS.This manual provides practical information and activities that help facilitators establish and implement good-quality FFS. It focuses on working with women and men poultry producers to sustainably enhance production, productivity and marketing in any family poultry production system, ranging from extensive to small-scale intensified, in line with producers’ aspirations and local conditions. The first module [...]

This paper summarizes the current state of concepts and approaches for addressing deforestation in the trade, marketing, and production of agricultural commodities that have a disproportionate impact on forests at international, national, and landscape level. To date, predominant attention has been directed towards the role of the private sector and "consumer countries" that shape market regulation. This publication aims to complement the international discourse by generating a greater focus on the role of "producer country" governments at the national and local level to support efforts to decouple agricultural production from deforestation.

Digital and automation solutions for precision agriculture can improve efficiency, productivity, product quality and sustainability. Nevertheless, barriers to adoption of such solutions – including their cost, lack of knowledge and skills, and the absence of an enabling environment and infrastructure – can prevent producers from realizing these benefits.Building on findings from 22 case studies worldwide, this study finds that national data policies and infrastructure are key enablers of adoption, as is investment in connectivity (e.g. internet) and electricity in rural areas. Further research and information on the economic, environmental and social impacts of the solutions are also needed to provide [...]

Digital and automation solutions can solve labour bottlenecks, increase agricultural productivity, resilience and efficiency, and improve environmental sustainability. However, access is limited in low- and lower-middle-income countries, especially for small-scale producers. Based on ten case studies in sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean and Asia, this study investigates the suitability of digital and automation solutions for small-scale producers, the main drivers and barriers to their adoption and the role of policies and regulations in creating an enabling environment.Findings show that technologies in the study countries are largely limited to smartphones and tablets, and related software tools (e.g. mobile applications). Most digital and automation solutions [...]
