dc.descriptionIn December 2011, the UN General Assembly in New York declared 2014 to be the International Year of Family Farming and invited the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) to facilitate implementation of the International Year, in collaboration with Governments, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) and other relevant organizations of the UN system, as we ll as relevant non-governmental organizations (UN, 2012). Among its initiatives for the International Year, FAO is planning to publish a major study on family farming and agricultural innovation systems (AIS) in 2014 as part of its State of Food and Agriculture (SOFA) series. SOFA is FAO’s premier, award-winning, flagship publication and is the oldest ‘global’ report in the UN system, produced since 1947. Every year, SOFA carries a special report on a major theme in world agriculture, from the p erspective of reducing food insecurity and poverty. Recent reports have covered investing in agriculture for food security (2012 - being finalized); women in agriculture (2010-11); livestock (2009); bioenergy (2008); environmental services (2007); food aid (2006); agricultural trade and poverty (2005); and agricultural biotechnology (2003-04). The report is published in 6 languages, is covered extensively by the international media and has helped to shape the global debate on some of these impor tant issues in world agriculture.
