| Summary, etc. |
This issue of The state of food and agriculture concentrates mainly on FA 0's mid-term review and appraisal of progress in the food and agricultural sector during the Second United Nations Development Decade (DD2) covering the 1970s. This is a revised version of the document submitted in the course of 1975, as the Organization's contribution to the overall review and appraisal of DD2 carried out by the United Nations system. While its main emphasis is on the analysis of information available for the first four years of DD2, it also reviews the longer term trends since the start of the First United Nations Development Decade.<br/>The assessment gives no cause, for complacency or even for satisfaction. In some instances, progress has been made during DD2. However, it has generally slowed down in comparison with the previous decade and in many crucial aspects the situation has deteriorated. Even with the subsequent good harvests in most developing countries in 1975, food and agricultural production in the developing world has increased much more slowly than during DDI, and has fallen behind the growth of population. The food imports of the developing countries have risen much faster than their agricultural exports, and many of them face grave difficulties in financing essential imports of food and fertilizers. Stocks of basic cereals have fallen well below minimum safety levels. The nutrition situation has deteriorated further in many countries. Although there has been increased recognition of the need for far reaching changes in the structure of rural institutions and services, there is little evidence of concrete progress except in isolated cases. International development assistance for agriculture has recently shown an encouraging expansion, yet it remains far below the levels necessary for the attainment of the DD2 agricultural production target. Food aid has recovered, but is has not yet reached the minimum target called for by the World Food Conference. |
