Book excerpt: Las Directrices voluntarias para la gestión sostenible de los suelos (las Directrices voluntarias) se elaboraron a través de un proceso incluyente en el marco de la Alianza mundial sobre los suelos (AMS). Pretenden ser un documento de referencia al formular recomendaciones en materia de políticas técnicas y generales sobre la gestión sostenible de los suelos (GSS) para una amplia gama de partes interesadas comprometidas. Las Directrices fueron adoptadas en la cuarta reunión de la asamblea Plena ria de la AMS (Roma, 25 de mayo de 2016), aprobadas en el 25º período de sesiones del Comité de Agricultura de la FAO (Roma, 28 de septiembre de 2016) y, por último, refrendadas en el 155º período de sesiones del Consejo de la FAO (Roma, 5 de diciembre de 2016).
Download or read book Directrices voluntarias para la conservaci n a nivel nacional de especies silvestres afines a las plantas cultivadas y plantas silvestres comestibles written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2018-06-08 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los parientes silvestres de cultivos son posibles fuentes de caracteres deseables para la obtención de variedades bien adaptadas, mientras que las plantas silvestres comestibles son componentes importantes de la dieta de muchas personas en todo el mundo. Lamentablemente, sus hábitats silvestres naturales están cada vez más amenazados por las actividades humanas y las catástrofes naturales. La pérdida de hábitat repercute de manera directa y negativa en la diversidad de estos valiosos recursos. Las presentes directrices, concebidas como material de referencia para la elaboración de un Plan nacional para la conservación y el uso sostenible de parientes silvestres de cultivos y plantas silvestres comestibles, contribuirán a frenar esta continua pérdida de diversidad. Las directrices son, por consiguiente, un instrumento útil para profesionales del desarrollo, investigadores, estudiantes y responsables de la formulación de políticas que trabajan en la conservación y el uso sostenible de estos valiosos recursos.

Book excerpt: El objetivo del Marco de Gestión Ambiental y Social (MGAS) consiste en reforzar la aplicación del enfoque basado en los derechos humanos y otros principios rectores del Marco de Cooperación en la programación de la FAO. La finalidad es garantizar que las personas y el medio ambiente estén protegidos de cualquier posible efecto adverso de los programas y proyectos de la FAO. También se pretende garantizar que todas las partes interesadas tengan numerosas oportunidades de participar activamente en las actividades de estos programas y proyectos, y puedan acceder a canales eficaces para expresar sus preocupaciones al respecto. El MGAS introduce un proceso innovador de análisis de riesgos relacionados con el cambio climático y las catástrofes para determinar posibles medidas sobre riesgos, mitigación y resiliencia. Asimismo, comprende requisitos nuevos y actualizados en cuanto a conservación y restauración de los recursos naturales renovables y la biodiversidad; protección del bienestar animal; fomento de los medios de vida resilientes; gestión de residuos y materiales peligrosos distintos de los plaguicidas; promoción de la eficiencia de los recursos; protección de la salud comunitaria y promoción de puestos de trabajo decentes; fortalecimiento de los requisitos para abordar la violencia de género (VG), en particular la prevención de la explotación y el abuso sexuales; respeto de los pueblos indígenas que viven en aislamiento voluntario; y mejora de los mecanismos de rendición de cuentas, resolución de conflictos y reclamación
Download or read book Agricultural Heritage Systems in Europe Asia Africa Central and South America written by Mauro Agnoletti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-04 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agriculture is often considered as one of the main threats to ecosystems. Unsustainable farming practices often result in habitat loss, inefficient use of water, soil degradation, pollution, genetic erosion, among other negative impacts on human life, including hunger, low food quality, reduced access to food resources, as well as the abandonment of rural areas. Nevertheless, when agriculture is practiced in a sustainable way, it can contribute to the preservation of many habitats, to the protection of watersheds, to the preservation and improvement of soil health. The use of sustainable and ecological practices is the key feature distinguishing traditional agriculture from intensive one. It may not provide very high yields, but ensures sustainable harvests over time, thanks to time-tested technologies and traditional know-hows and also represent examples of adaptation to harsh environmental conditions. Based on this approach, in 2002, FAO launched the concept of Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) Programme, to identify and safeguard agricultural systems that are ensuring food and livelihood security, while maintaining magnificent landscapes, agricultural biodiversity, traditional knowledge, cultural and social values. This book presents 18 examples of these traditional agriculture systems around the world, with a special focus on Europe, Asia, Africa, Central and South America, as a result of the “GIAHS Building Capacity” project co-funded by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS) and carried out by the Department of Agriculture, Food, Environment and Forestry (DAGRI) of the University of Florence (Italy).

Download or read book Soil erosion the greatest challenge for sustainable soil management written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2019-05-16 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite almost a century of research and extension efforts, soil erosion by water, wind and tillage continues to be the greatest threat to soil health and soil ecosystem services in many regions of the world. Our understanding of the physical processes of erosion and the controls on those processes has been firmly established. Nevertheless, some elements remain controversial. It is often these controversial questions that hamper efforts to implement sound erosion control measures in many areas of the world. This book, released in the framework of the Global Symposium on Soil Erosion (15-17 May 2019) reviews the state-of-the-art information related to all topics related to soil erosion.
