State of Food and Agriculture 2001

Regular FAO report, which asserts that many poor countries have seen their prospects for food security further improve because of their success in creating a policy environment conducive to sustained economic and agricultural growth. Although economic and food security problems remain serious in Africa, there are improvements in many areas, while a number of countries in Latin America and the Caribbean have seen a good performance of the agricultural sector. The report includes regional overviews, detailed reviews of certain countries, and a special chapter on the agroprocessing industry. Online reports available for 1994, 1995, 1997 and 1998.
