In Türkiye's Isparta region, a major apple producer, FAO's Integrated Pest Management (IPM) project has achieved remarkable success. The initiative safely disposed of 14 tonnes of illegal or expired pesticides. Field trials demonstrated IPM reduced codling moth pesticide use by 70% while ensuring 0% fruit damage.

Farmers now effectively use pheromone dispensers, reporting no pesticide application, yield loss, or pest damage. This success led to a 70% overall reduction in pesticide use, gaining regional trust and prompting neighbouring areas to adopt similar incentives.

Peatlands are vital ecosystems, crucial for climate action, storing vast carbon, conserving biodiversity, and supporting livelihoods.

Under the AIM4Forests program, technicians from Indigenous Peoples’ organizations, public institutions, and research centers gathered in Iquitos, Peru. They strengthened peatland monitoring capacities using SEPAL, satellite data, drones, and field verification to support sustainable forest management. The workshop concluded with a visit to the Native Community of Nueva Jerusalén, where technology and Indigenous knowledge combine for Amazonian peatland conservation.

Data centers are significant energy consumers. By designing them for flexibility, their power demand can align with the availability of clean energy on the grid. Non-urgent computing tasks can be paused or accelerated, allowing data centers to slow down when renewables are scarce and speed up when abundant, transforming them into valuable grid assets.

Professor Ayse Coskun, Chief Scientist at Emerald AI and a Boston University professor, is a leader in this emerging field of flexible, grid-aware computing. Her research applies AI and machine learning to optimize cloud systems, making this innovative approach a real-world solution.

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Animal Biosecurity Association (WABA) are launching a webinar series on animal biosecurity, promoting its sustainable implementation across educational, institutional, and field settings. It improves animal health, production, One Health, and food security with practical tools to manage infectious disease threats at the animal-human interface. Presentations include Gonzalo Abad on a data-driven framework for modeling biosecurity risk and Géraldine Boseret on avian influenza preparedness and early action. These sessions demonstrate how evidence-based analytics enhance biosecurity strategies for prevention and response.

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Animal Biosecurity Association (WABA) are hosting a webinar series on biosecurity in animal populations. It explores consistent, sustainable biosecurity implementation to improve animal health, production, One Health, and food security.

The series offers practical tools for managing infectious disease threats. The first introduces a data-driven framework to identify disease risk and optimize biosecurity investments. The second addresses avian influenza, focusing on occupational exposure and preparedness, including targeted biosecurity and business continuity. These demonstrate how evidence-based analytics enhance prevention, protection, and response in livestock systems.
