But rather than address the agricultural sectors crop selection or growing groundwater addiction, the governor's order requires farmers to report water use more frequently or face inspection by state water managers.
In fact, the most enduring successes to date have come from indigenous public-sector crop research programmes addressing farmer-relevant problems.
The selection of success stories aims to encompass and capture a broad range of innovations that are being used in the different agricultural sectors (crop, livestock, fisheries and aquaculture, forestry).
This FAO global report, part of FAO's commitment to take forward the implementation of the Sendai Framework for DRR, analyses the impact of natural hazards' induced disasters, food chain crises and conflicts on the agriculture sectors (crop, livestock, fishery-aquaculture, and forestry) and provides an insight into the changing nature of risks to the same.
The events cover all food and agricultural sectors (crops, forestry, fisheries/aquaculture, livestock, agro-industry) and a wide range of biotechnologies (e.g. use of molecular markers, artificial insemination, triploidisation, biofertilisers, micropropagation, genomics, genetic modification etc.).
A large number of stakeholders (researchers, policy makers, growers and industries) are involved in the sector of crop protection, which needs to be coordinated through effective communications and dynamic collaboration to make any IPM strategy successful.
The NMBs were completed through the collaborative effort of farmers, private sector certified crop advisors and nutrient management planners, Soil and Water Conservation District staff, and the Upper Susquehanna Coalition (a network of the 17 Soil and Water Conservation Districts in New York and 3 in Pennsylvania).
Burkina Faso, like the other Sahel countries in West Africa, relies heavily on its agricultural sector through crop and livestock production, which jointly contributed 30%% to the country's GDP.
On Jamaica, strong winds caused moderate damage to the agricultural sector, with crop and livestock damage totaling to $1.44 million.
No official data is yet available regarding the impact to the agriculture sector, although crop losses are expected in the worst affected zones.
