创新是实现《2030年可持续发展议程》和各项可持续发展目标的关键，也是向更加高效、包容、有韧性和可持续的农业粮食体系转型以及实现消除饥饿和贫困、可持续管理和利用自然资源等全球目标的重要加速器。但创新无法凭空产生。它需要有扶持性政策、强有力和变革性的伙伴关系、资金投入、开放和鼓励创新的包容性文化以及承担预估风险的意愿。本期《世界森林状况》报告重点介绍世界森林状况，并探究林业部门通过基于实证的创新形成的变革性力量，包括从新技术到创新性成功政策和制度变化，再到面向森林所有人和管理者的全新融资方式。来自世界各地的18个案例将展现在现实条件下试行和实施的林业部门各种技术、社会、政策、制度和金融创新以及这些创新的组合应用。《2024年世界森林状况》指出创新方面所面临的障碍和推动因素，并提出通过五大行动，促使人们在林业部门运用创新来解决问题并扩大积极影响。

农业投资，包括香蕉行业的创新，对于提高农业生产力和可持续粮食生产系统的能力至关重要，是实现#ZeroHunger 所必需的。考虑到广大公众，手册《一起，我们可以防止 TR4 的传播》试图解释为什么香蕉和大蕉因其经济重要性和深厚的文化根源而成为世界各地必不可少的作物。它还强调了对抗导致香蕉枯萎病（香蕉 FW）疾病的热带种族 4 (TR4) 传播的主要方法。香蕉是世界上出口量最大的水果，而大蕉作为其生产国的经济作物，对粮食安全和创收做出了巨大贡献。作为一种跨界土传真菌，TR4 被公认为农业史上最具破坏性的害虫之一，也是世界上对香蕉和大蕉生产的最大威胁。这种疾病影响了许多品种，包括提供全球大约一半香蕉供应的卡文迪什香蕉。目前，对抗 TR4 的最有效方法是防止其传播到清洁区域并在检测到时立即进行遏制。多样性也是预防 TR4 的关键。作物多样化和更好地利用现有遗传资源是建立长期抵御疾病的关键。重点放在受 TR4 影响国家的疾病管理和恢复所需的支持上，在这些国家中，国际合作和地方行动必不可少。

尽管毁林和森林退化现象仍存在于亚洲及太平洋地区的许多国家，但过去三十年中国的林业部门发生了巨大变化。中国不仅成功遏止毁林，还大幅增加了森林面积和蓄积量。目前，中国在人工林和农用林方面居亚洲地区首位，在木材加工方面也取得了令人瞩目的成就。目前是几种林产品（如木板、纸、纸板以及家具）的最大出口国，还是几种非木材林产品的主要生产和出口国。     若干政策变化和体制改革，包括森林权属相关变革，都旨在动员私营部门增加对林业的投资。此外，环境问题也引发了多项干预措施，例如禁止采伐天然林，保护和养护现有森林和林地。城市化快速发展以及随之而来对木材和环境服务的需求，导致在造林、再造林和森林保护方面的投资增加。科学技术取得重大发展，包括加强部门内外的技能和能力，促进了价值链上增值、贸易和市场服务的有效运作，并进一步帮助加速转型。考虑到森林转型的规模和速度，中国的经验尤其值得借鉴。     本文致力于解释影响中国森林转型的因素以及有助于稳定和完善林业部门的多种途径。对于着力改善林业部门的国家，在宏观变化以及需采取广泛措施的背景下，中国的案例提供了特别宝贵的经验教训。

蜜蜂可以为全世界许多养蜂人提供生计或收入来源。这可以是通过蜜蜂提供的服务（主要是授粉服务、蜂疗和蜜蜂旅游），也可以直接通过蜜蜂产品来实现。蜂产品包括：活的蜜蜂，以保证有新的蜂王或蜂群、蜂蜜、花粉、蜂蜡、蜂胶、蜂王浆和蜂毒。蜂产品可作为人类食品、动物饲料、化妆品、常规药物（主要是疫苗接种）或养蜂疗法中使用的药物，或其他类似的多种产品、木工、引诱剂、甜味剂等。

Development of the modern, highly specialised and economically efficient, forestry in the 1700s has substantially changed the structural characteristics and dynamics of European woodlands.
