State of food and agriculture in Asia and the Pacific region, including future prospects and emerging issues
This document will focus on several particularly high priorities that have been identified by member nations: building inclusive and efficient food chains in Pacific Island countries (PIC); revitalizing the coconut sector for increased resilience and food security; sustainable intensification of aquaculture; livestock production: achievements, problems and impact on human health; and the future of family farming. Before discussing these emerging issues, however, the document will first provide an update on food and nutrition security in the region.
