Dans le cadre de ce projet (2015-2018), la FAO a travaillé dans 21 pays (voir la carte ci-dessous) au travers de partenariats avec des OSC nationales pour la réalisation d’ateliers de sensibilisation et de renforcement des capacités afin de: Améliorer les connaissances et la compréhension des OSC par rapport aux DVGF; Accroître leurs compétences en matière de construction et connexion de réseaux et de plaidoyer pour défendre leurs droits fonciers et renforcer les partenariats pour une meilleure application des DVGF à tous les niveaux; Renforcer leurs capacités pour une participation e
Ce guide est le premier d’une série consacrée à l’application pratique,sur des cultures de petits producteurs et des systèmes de production agricole spécifiques, du modèle «Produire plus avec moins» de la FAO. Sa publication intervient alors que la production du manioc s’intensifie à l'échelle mondiale, avec une transition des producteurs utilisant les systèmes traditionnels de culture vers la monoculture, vers des génotypes à rendement élevé et vers un recours accru aux produits agrochimiques.
Lancée par le président brésilien Lula au début des années 2000, Fome Zero est une stratégie globale de lutte contre la faim, intégrant un ensemble de programmes publics d’accès à l’alimentation, de soutien à l’agriculture familiale et de développement d’activités génératrices de revenus, le tout dans un cadre impliquant fortement la société civile. Grâce à Fome Zero, le Brésil est souvent montré comme le modèle à suivre en matière de politique publique de lutte contre la faim. Mais quels sont les aléas du copier-coller de ce modèle ?
Individual farmers often receive low prices for their harvest, and pineapple producers in Bangladesh are no exception. To help them, CDAIS facilitated a series of meetings and coaching.

This paper analyzes the operational constraints experienced by the different actors in the rice value chain in Myanmar. Both primary and secondary data on the rice value chain in Ayeyarwaddy Region, the main rice-growing area in Myanmar, were collected. The actors in the region suffer from constraints in material input, production, financial, distributional, and institutional.

This paper analyzes the status of Pakistan’s agriculture in the world and quantifies the potential of improving productivity and quality of value chain at its different nodes. A great potential of expansion in the value chain of large number of agricultural commodities produced in Pakistan are observed. Just bringing the average crop yield levels at par to the world average yield can generate over US$11 billion additional revenues to the producers. Despite lower yield, majority of commodities have lower prices compared to the world average prices at the farmgate.
