strengthening veterinary services’ abilities to quickly respond to and manage animal diseases as well as implementing good practices for animal production in view of enhanced competitiveness;
promoting regional and international cooperation and coordination to formulate and implement livestock sector and related policies;
improving national capacity to develop livestock production, while protecting natural resources and the environment.
improved fisheries governance and monitoring, control and surveillance systems;
artisanal fisheries and their interaction with industrial fisheries;
national/regional research capacity to evaluate available resources;
regional cooperation, notably through support to regional fisheries management organisations. Sustainable agriculture integrates three main goals--environmental health, economic profitability, and social and economic equity.
Sustainability rests on the principle that we must meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
systems approach also implies interdisciplinary efforts in research and education . This requires not only the input of researchers from various disciplines, but also farmers, farm workers, consumers, policymakers and others.
Making of small dam to avoid rain water loss through out and finally goes to ocean this water should be retained with construction of dam so that the fisheries, harvesting of the crops and others programme can be started. In this regards detail study to be carried out for searching of the site where & how much size to be decided.
Climate change is already having a significant impact on ecosystems, economies and communities. Rising average temperatures do not simply mean balmier winters. Some regions will experience more extreme heat while others may cool slightly. Flooding, drought and intense summer heat could result.
Gain state of the art knowledge on concepts and principles of integrated, multilevel water governance. Identify instruments for increasing social and financial accountability of water management and water services. Increase insight in the legal, political and institutional framework affecting water governance in your context. Get acquainted with assessment tools and new approaches for dealing with the challenges of water governance. Broaden your knowledge on international best practices in the field of multilevel water governance.
Preventive strategies, adopted early, can reduce inputs and help establish a sustainable production system. When possible, pest-resistant crops should be selected which are tolerant of existing soil or site conditions? When site selection is an option, factors such as soil type and depth, previous crop history, and location (e.g. climate, topography) should be taken into account before planting.
Diversified farms are usually more economically and ecologically resilient. While monoculture farming has advantages in terms of efficiency and ease of management, the loss of the crop in any one year could put a farm out of business and/or seriously disrupt the stability of a community dependent on that crop. By growing a variety of crops, farmers spread economic risk and are less susceptible to the radical price fluctuations associated with changes in supply and demand.
Focus on innovation in the financial ecosystem that ensures ‘sustainability’ is a parameter at the project execution level, and particularly in the public sector institutions that account for over 60 per cent .
Play a leadership role through country actions and in global discussions such as the Addis Financing for Development Conference, which includes sustainable infrastructure as one of its central pillars.
