We need your help! @ClieNFarms - Farm Survey 🧑‍🌾

We need farmers' experiences: Please complete this survey to identify reasons for and against certain practices so we can find out which practices are climate-friendly AND practical.

By sequestering carbon, reducing runoff and flood protection hedges serve as an excellent example of climate mitigation and adaptation practices. Thanks to @BioDataCentre for this great infographic. #climateAction #ClimateAdaptation

Agrobiodiversity is a crucial part of biodiversity and is protected by international agreements and EU regulations.
It is important to protect local breeds, so mainstream breeds and the humankind can benefit from them in the future.

[FAO Livestock @FAOLivestock]

At least 26% of livestock breeds are at risk of extinction.

Sustainable use, development and conservation of the world’s livestock genetic resources are of vital importance to agriculture, food production, rural development and the environment.

Climate and Land Use Change are affecting the way humans & animals interact with the environment.
WHO & WOAH released the first-ever global guidance to develop One Health field epidemiology competencies for adaptation, prevention, preparedness, and response to health threats.

[FAO Livestock @FAOLivestock]

Infectious diseases are emerging at a rapid rate and pose a severe threat to health security, global economy and food safety.

New framework for #OneHealth field epidemiology strengthens collaboration for public, animal and environment health
