The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information. We help developing countries and countries in transition modernize and improve agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices and ensure good nutrition for all. Since our founding in 1945, we have focused special attention on developing rural areas, home to 70 percent of the world's poor and hungry people.

FAO and the Global Mechanism of the UNCCD have joined efforts to prepare this discussion paper on sustainable financing for FLR. It provides an overview of existing funding sources and financial instruments that could be used and adapted specifically for the implementation of FLR efforts at the national, regional and global levels. It identifies innovative financing mechanisms to support the achievement of these global targets and discusses the main challenges for enhanced FLR financing.

Ova analiza je jedna od sedam sektorskih analiza (meso i mliječni proizvodi; voće i povrće; žitarice; vino; diversifikacija, ribarstvo i akvakultura, šumarstvo) koje su od proljeća 2011. godine do danas izrađene za institucije u oblasti poljoprivrede na nivou države, entiteta i Distrikta Brčko. Sektorske analize daju ulazne veličine za koncept mjera koje će finansirati Evropska unija (EU) iz instrumenta za pretpristupnu pomoć za ruralni razvoj (IPARD) – kada bude dostupan – kao i koncept intervencija zemlje u oblasti politike uopšte.
