The implementation of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda is just at the outset. Pursuing the broad and ambitious Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) calls for timely and effective policy actions in a quickly evolving world. In this context, the ability to design sound policies and monitor their outcomes is a key requirement, and measuring progress towards international goals and their national and subnational specifications is of paramount importance. This pocketbook presents, at a glance, selected key indicators on agriculture and food security, and is meant to serve as an quick and easy-to-access reference for stakeholders and partners involved in policy formulation or decision-making processes. The indicators are presented in two sections, one thematic and one country-specific, and are organized along four main themes: .Setting: describing the main trends in the use of agricultural resources .Hunger: providing estimates of the two indicators for SDG2 (ending hunger): the prevalence of undernourishment and the prevalence of moderate or severe food insecurity .Food supply: offering information on the nature and quantity of world agricultural production trade .Environment: examining the interactions of agriculture with the ecosystem in the evolving context of climate change.
