(e) Crop production

Involving African women in decision making about crop production turns out to enable environmentally sustainable farming practices.

Overview The wild relatives of crop plants constitute an increasingly important resource for improving agricultural production and for maintaining sustainable agro ecosystems.

The projects focus mainly on fisheries, poultry production, nutrition, crop production, forestry and livestock raising.

Iran estimates its crop losses by comparing the actual production of each crop in each of the affected provinces during 1991 with the expected production of those crops, based on a statistical analysis of crop yields over a period of 11 years from 1986 to 1996.

Sustainable consumption and production patterns

For the fifth consecutive year, rain shortfalls resulted in crop failure and poor livestock production.

The number of farmers reached by such schemes in illicit crop production areas is still insufficient.

Programme Component C.3 Cleaner and Sustainable Production

The livelihood component includes learning processes concerning skills development involving existing alternative sources of income such as abaca fibre production, handicraft making and cash crop production.

These are places where water is so scarce year after year that crop production is marginal at best.

Meanwhile, the benefits of GM crop cultivation include higher yields, lower use of chemical pesticides, and biofuel production.

These systems in turn produced crop yields that could sustain much higher population densities than competing methods of food production.

These conditions render the rural population vulnerable to the influence of drug trafficking and increase dependence on illicit crop production.

The strategies for sustainable increase in rice production must focus on

Likewise, food scarcity is a growing problem for Asian countries, with crop yields and overall food production growing more slowly than demand.

The symposium, held in Brussels, looked at the future of the rice crop in terms of improving its production and enhancing nutrition

For each crop, Iran calculates the compensation sought by multiplying the decrease in production in 1991, which it considers to be the result of Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait, by the market price of that crop.

Instead, most now apply insecticides only when infestation exceeds some threshold level, with the goal of producing a sustainable and satisfactory crop.

The increase in productivity is combined with the promotion of sustainable production systems.

Following are the main recommendations for global actions to support sustainable rice production

Annual crop residues (including pressed seedcake) can be burned throughout the year in local electricity generation plants, thereby smoothing out the production income cycle.

Rural Pakistani women are not only responsible for time and energy consuming household tasks but are also major contributors to the rural economy particularly in three sub sectors crop production, livestock production and cottage industry.

The priority services under this module include cleaner and sustainable production and water management.

How can sustainable production and consumption in the tourism sector be promoted by Governments?

The threats to sustaining such systems, such as monoculture cash crop production, mineral extraction, environmental contamination and genetically modified seeds and technology, should be addressed.

What they want are implements to increase their production something to fertilize the soil, something to protect their crop and to bring it to a market.

Crop Settings

The cleaner and sustainable production (CP) strategy of UNIDO is implemented through a network of National Cleaner Production Centres (NCPCs), and pursues the following objectives

Not only would this reduce hunger by increasing food production and lowering food prices it would also protect biodiversity, because higher crop productivity would mean less deforestation.

Iran estimates the alleged reduction in crop quality by comparing crop prices in the Southern Provinces in 1991 with national crop prices.

In complementary development of forest production a multi purposeful interest of sustainable forest development is sought.

Implementation of a regional programme on sustainable production and consumption in Latin America and the Caribbean

These include crop rotation, increased crop diversification, and introducing integrated pest management systems.

In order to achieve global sustainable development, governments, international organizations, the private sector and the main stakeholders must promote new patterns of sustainable production and consumption.

The effects are unpredictable but likely to be huge, in terms of crop production, diseases, costs and availability of irrigation and drinking water, coastal erosion, and so forth
