This publication presents the GEF-6 biodiversity strategy for 2014-2018. As the financial mechanism of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) the GEF provides funding to help countries implement the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity, 2011-2020, and achieve the Aichi Targets. I am pleased that donors during the recently completed replenishment pledged $1.296 billion towards the biodiversity focal area for GEF-6, making it the largest individual focal area within the GEF.
Resulta esencial calibrar las máquinas con el fin de lograr densidades de siembra y tasas de fertilización óptimas. Los errores en la calibración, incluso los más leves, pueden provocar grandes diferencias en el campo. Con la calibración se asegura que no se aplique demasiada semilla o fertilizante (con lo cual se ahorra dinero y se protege el medio ambiente), pero tampoco cantidades insuficientes, lo cual puede producir una disminución en el rendimiento.

The document summarizes the GEF Council's decision to approve the Strategic Approach to Enhancing Capacity Building in November 2003. In approving the strategy, the Council requested the GEF Secretariat, in collaboration with the Implementing Agencies and the monitoring and evaluation unit, to undertake further work to operationalize it.
To meet multiple environmental objectives, integrated programming is becoming increasingly important for the Global Environmental Facility (GEF). Integration of multiple environmental, social and economic objectives also contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in a timely and cost-effective way. However, integration is often not well defined. This report therefore focuses on identifying key aspects of integration and assessing their implementation in natural resources management projects.
La extensión es el proceso de intervención de carácter educativo y transformador, cuyo objetivo es el desarrollo económico y social de las familias rurales, a través de servicios de asistencia técnica, intercambio de tecnología, desarrollo de capacidades y capacitación. Este documento muestra como lograr estos servicios.
La presentación es dirigida a productores y grupos de personas, que realizan actividades agrícolas, pecuarias, acuícolas y pesqueras en zonas rurales y periurbanas. El documento da recomendaciones para facilitar el acceso de los productores familiares al acompañamiento técnico y trata de modelos de extensión con mayor impacto en el desarrollo de la Agricultura Familiar.
PESA focaliza sus acciones en “Apoyar a las Unidades de Producción Familiar en localidades rurales de alta y muy alta marginación, para incrementar los niveles de producción y productividad de sus actividades agropecuarias, acuícolas y pesqueras…”.
Based on three regional needs assessments, a strategic Action Plan has been formulated and adopted by the Partner Assembly of the Tropical Agriculture Platform (TAP), held in China in September 2013. It defines the outcomes, outputs and activities of TAP, which are considered instrumental for facilitating effective and sustainable Capacity Development for Agricultural Innovation Systems in tropical areas.
This paper has been prepared under the guidelines provided by the TAP Secretariat at the FAO, as a contribution to the G20 initiative TAP, which includes near 40 partners and is facilitated by FAO. Its purpose is to provide a Regional synthesis report on capacity needs assessment for agricultural innovation, with capacity gaps identified and analyzed, including recommendations to strengthen agricultural innovation systems (AIS) and draft policy recommendations to address the capacity gaps.
