UNCCD-FAO Initiative on land tenure
Supporting countries with the integration of tenure security into land degradation neutrality and land restoration initiatives
2024

Also available in:

No results found.

Since a decision of the Parties of the UNCCD Convention during UNCCD COP14, the Parties keep on reiterating the need to better integrate tenure security into land degradation neutrality initiatives. To answer this call the UNCCD-FAO initiative carried out the design of a technical guide on this matter, and then supported a first group of five countries to organize national consultations to reflect and discuss on how better integrate tenure security into land degradation neutrality initiatives (answering the call of the UNCCD COP15 Decision on land tenure). This leaflet presents an overview of the UNCCD-FAO Initiative process to support a first group of five countries (Kazakhstan, Sri Lanka, Kenya, Mexico, and Senegal), relying also on support from FAO national offices and external partners, in some cases aligning with ongoing multistakeholder platforms and capacity building programmes. These national consultations were based on a multistakeholder approach involving government, civil society organizations, local communities and private sector. They were tailored for each of the five countries, focusing on specific development challenges and the most relevant pathways to catalyze action in terms of policy and implementation.

Vegetable cultivation with ridge sowing, farmyard manure, multi-cropping and integrated pest management under drought conditions in Pakistan 2018

Also available in:

No results found.

This technology describes the introduction of ridge sowing, farmyard manure (FYM), multi-cropping and Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices for vegetable production (okra, sunflower and sugarcane crops) in the Ghotki district in Pakistan. The construction of ridges or raised beds reduces the total area to which surface irrigation is applied, as only the areas between ridges or raised beds are flooded thus reducing water needs by 20-30 percent.
