Book excerpt: New evidence this year corroborates the rise in world hunger observed in this report last year, sending a warning that more action is needed if we aspire to end world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. Updated estimates show the number of people who suffer from hunger has been growing over the past three years, returning to prevailing levels from almost a decade ago. Although progress continues to be made in reducing child stunting, over 22 percent of children under five years of age are still affected. Other forms of malnutrition are also growing: adult obesity continues to increase in countries irrespective of their income levels, and many countries are coping with multiple forms of malnutrition at the same time – overweight and obesity, as well as anaemia in women, and child stunting and wasting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Food balance sheets provide comprehensive pictures of a country's food supply during a specified reference period. Sources of supply and utilization are shown for each item. Food balance sheets are utilized by FAO for assessment and appraisal of world food situations and to establish a statistical base for world agricultural development. Balance sheets indicate supply but not usage. Balance sheets cover production, stock changes, imports, domestic supply, exports, feed, seed, manufacture, waste, food usages, per caput supply for each commodity analyzed within a three-year period (averages are given based on mid-year etimates). Accuracy of statistics are based on reliability of basic population statistics, supply and utilization statistics, and nutritive values. The balance sheets cover the 1972-1974 period and are categorized by 1) continental analysis; 2) economic classes and regions analysis; 3) country (162) analysis, based on FAO supply/utilzation accounts (SUA's) of food products and processed foods.

Download or read book FAO Food Balance Sheets written by Chan-Myae Thar and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 1040 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food Balance Sheets (FBSs) constructed by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) illustrate the food supply and utilization pattern of a country over time, and are the only source of standardized food supply data available for multiple countries over many years. However, there are questions about the details of the FBS methodology, their use in health research, and the reliability of the data. Thus, the aim of this research was to describe in detail the FAOFBSs methodology and its uses in health research, and undertake analysis of New Zealand FBS data to describe national food and nutrient availability between 1961 and 2011. Methods The research was divided into three parts as follows: - A comprehensive appraisal of available published and online information on FBS methodology, components, and data sources. This was supplemented by direct requests for further information from FAO representatives. In addition, sources of data for New Zealand’s FBSs were specifically examined. - A systematic review of published literature to identify common uses of FBS in health research. - Analysis of per capita trends in New Zealand food and nutrient availability over time for six major food groups, energy, protein and fat. Findings - Data collected for FBSs comprise three main categories: supply (total food supply of a country), utilization (food available to consumers) and per capita supply (food available per person). The FAO sends questionnaires to relevant organizations within participating countries to complete every year. FAO-FBSs balance raw data using formulas, extraction rates or food composition factors to obtain all values of food commodities in FBS, and then undertake standardization. The final FBSs are made available on the FAO website. - 119 eligible studies (all study designs) were included in the systematic literature review and divided into five categories of FBS data use: within-country analysis of food groups, nutrient availability and/or dietary trends (n=17), inter-country, regional or global comparison of food groups, nutrient availability and/or dietary trends (n=45), comparison of FBSs with other national sources of dietary data (n=7), association between FBS dietary factors and mortality or health outcomes (n=45) and modelling studies (n=5) - Key recommendations based on the findings of the literature review were: FBS data should be averaged over several years, caution should be exercised regarding the quality of FBS data because the published values depend on the reliability of input data, and results of analyses using FBS data should ideally be reported as nutrient densities (e.g. expressed per 1000kcal), trends, and percentage energy or ratios rather than absolute values. - Statistics New Zealand is the major source of data for the New Zealand FBS. Over the past 50 years, increases in per capita supply were seen for vegetables and fruits: 600g/day (1961-63) to 800g/day (2009-11); wine and other alcoholic beverages: 0.5g alcohol/day (1961-63) to 2.4 and 2g alcohol/day (2009-11); poultry: 8g/day (1960s) to around 100g/day (2011); sugar: 127.3g/day (1961-63) to 138g/day (2009-11), and vegetable fats and oils: 2g/day (1960s) to 21.5g/day (2009-11). Decreases in per capita supply were seen for milk: 500g/day (1961-63) to 300g/day (2009-11) and butter: 50g/day (1961-63) to 27g/day 92009-11). Per capita supply of energy was stable between 12000-14000kJ/day (1961-2011). Conclusions FBSs are a valuable source of population-level dietary data for national and international epidemiological studies when reported and analysed appropriately. Regarding NZ diet, although significant improvements for certain food groups were seen, the increase in availability of sugar and the stable energy trend is worrying to the continued increase in the obesity rates.

This book was released on 2021-11-23 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic exposed the vulnerability of agrifood systems to shocks and stresses and led to increased global food insecurity and malnutrition. Action is needed to make agrifood systems more resilient, efficient, sustainable and inclusive. The State of Food and Agriculture 2021 presents country-level indicators of the resilience of agrifood systems. The indicators measure the robustness of primary production and food availability, as well as physical and economic access to food. They can thus help assess the capacity of national agrifood systems to absorb shocks and stresses, a key aspect of resilience. The report analyses the vulnerabilities of food supply chains and how rural households cope with risks and shocks. It discusses options to minimize trade-offs that building resilience may have with efficiency and inclusivity. The aim is to offer guidance on policies to enhance food supply chain resilience, support livelihoods in the agrifood system and, in the face of disruption, ensure sustainable access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to all.

This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FAO provides countries with technical support to conduct nutrition assessments, in particular to build the evidence base required for countries to achieve commitments made at the Second International Conference on Nutrition (ICN2) and under the 2016-2025 UN Decade of Action on Nutrition. Such concrete evidence can only derive from precise and valid measures of what people eat and drink. There is a wide range of dietary assessment methods available to measure food and nutrient intakes (expressed as energy insufficiency, diet quality and food patterns etc.) in diet and nutrition surveys, in impact surveys, and in monitoring and evaluation. Differenct indicators can be selected according to a study's objectives, sample population, costs and required precision. In low capacity settings, a number of other issues should be considered (e.g. availability of food composition tables, cultural and community specific issues, such as intra-household distribution of foods and eating from shared plates, etc.). This manual aims to signpost for the users the best way to measure food and nutrient intakes and to enhance their understanding of the key features, strengths and limitations of various methods. It also highlights a number of common methodological considerations involved in the selection process. Target audience comprises of individuals (policy-makers, programme managers, educators, health professionals including dietitians and nutritionists, field workers and researchers) involved in national surveys, programme planning and monitoring and evaluation in low capacity settings, as well as those in charge of knowledge brokering for policy-making.

This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions. The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition.

This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation. To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world. In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms.
