India —
A national project on organic farming is being promoted through various incentives disbursed to farmers. Between 2003 and 2010, the area under certified organic farming increased from 42,000 to 10,050,000 hectares. (NBSAP)

Myanmar —
The Myanmar Certification Committee is developing Sustainable Forest Management Certification and a Chain of Custody Certification. It is promoting the Timber Legality Assurance System, in collaboration with the European Forest Institute, NGOs and INGOs. (NBSAP)

Cameroon —
NBSAP (2012) contains 2 national-level targets (2020) and 3 ecosystem-specific targets mapped to achieving ABT7. Sector-specific (forests and wildlife) targets were to be developed also. Actions promote the consumption of new species and diversity of crops and varieties to reduce pressures on species under threat, establishment of small- and medium-size enterprises, sustainable use of alternative energy and sustainable management of production landscapes. Community-based biodiversity conservation and ecosystem management approaches are also promoted (efforts to ensure community involvement in natural resource management have been highly sector-focused). In addition, integrated action frameworks on all activities (mining, industrial logging, smallholder agriculture, and illegal logging) impacting on forest biodiversity conservation are to be developed and/or intensified. (NBSAP)

Bhutan —
NBSAP (2014) comprises 3 separate strategies to implement National Target 7 which is mapped to achieving ABT7. Implementation of this target is prioritized in the 2015-2020 period. The respective strategies aim to: improve management of State Forest, including rangeland for sustainable production of goods and services; strengthen good governance for sustainable management of forests; and promote sustainable agricultural practices that ensure conservation of biological diversity. Actions to be undertaken include inter alia: institution of a monitoring and evaluation mechanism to assess the efficacy of the management plans in terms of sustainability; capacity strengthening and empowerment of local communities for sustainable management of resources; promotion of organic farming; and exploration of innovative approaches to incentivize the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices. (NBSAP)

Russian Federation —
The Strategy and Executive Plan for the Conservation of Biodiversity (2014) contains three 2020 sub-targets mapped to ABT7 which aim to achieve: sustainable management and use of at least 20% of all agricultural lands; sustainable management of at least 50% of exploited and protected forest; and sustainable management of all bodies of water used for aquaculture (ensuring minimal impact on biodiversity in adjacent areas and in natural ecosystems). Aquaculture production has been increasing since 2002, however has not reached levels seen prior to 1991 (this does not include salmon production). The sector is currently regulated by the Bill “On Aquaculture” signed in 2013. Actions to be carried out include inter alia the development and implementation of methodological recommendations for reducing the impact of aquaculture technologies on the environment and biodiversity.

Panama —
NBSAP 2018-2050 indicates that, through Law 69 adopted in 2017, an incentive program was established to assist with consolidating the alliance for the reforestation of one million hectares which, at the same time, will contribute to achieving the SDGs. This program provides partial or total non-refundable direct financing benefiting, among other activities, those carried out in regard to natural forest protection, restoration and conservation, agroforestry, forests and livestock, sustainable forest management and commercial plantations. (NBSAP)

Sweden —
Five of the ten milestone targets in the Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 are mapped to achieving ABT7. They address: a holistic approach to land use; protection of land and freshwater areas (at least 20%) and marine areas (10%); environmental considerations in forestry (the expectations of society are clarified and known to the forestry industry so that they can be put into practice); varied forestry; and an open dialogue process with forestry stakeholders on a national forestry programme, covering economic, social and environmental values of forests. (NBSAP)

Zambia —
A detailed and spatially explicit analysis of the drivers of deforestation in the country has been carried out. This analysis also identified expected forest area changes in the future and the most threatened forests. (6NR)

Sri Lanka —
Efforts are being carried out to develop the aquaculture and inland fisheries sector to ensure nutritional security for the Sri Lankan people (per capita fish consumption is below the obligatory target and capture fisheries have almost reached their sustainable limits). Current aquaculture activities relate primarily to shrimp and prawn production for the export market. Inland fisheries cater to the local market. The industry is undergoing a process of diversification and work in relation to seaweed culture, shell fish culture and sea cucumber culture is in the first developmental stage. It is recognized that sustainable aquaculture development requires responsible planning. An aquaculture approach which holds promise in reducing environmental impact is the recent trend in Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA), combining fed fish and extractive aquaculture (seaweed and shellfish). Moreover, the provision of secondary crops through IMTA contributes to ensuring the sustainability of farms. In 2017, the National Aquaculture Development Authority established a Fish Genetic Resource Development Centre in Dambulla. (6NR)

Latvia —
Organic farming reached 13.5% of the total agricultural land in 2017. Forests cover 52% of the country and the biomass of lumber is growing at 3 times the rate of the expansion of forest area. Approximately 57% of forests are certified according to either the Forest Stewardship Council or the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). Respective guidelines have been prepared for the development of the aquaculture sector, as well as for the protection of habitats such as, coastal areas, inland dunes, heaths, rivers, lakes, semi-natural grasslands, mires, springs, outcrops, caves and forests. In addition, the Maritime Spatial Plan of Latvia 2030, adopted in 2019, aims to balance environmental, social and economic interests and promote the sustainable development of the marine space, permitting or restricting specific actions in the sea and along the coast.

Colombia —
Colombia and its largest cocoa company, Casa Luker, and the National Cocoa Federation, through the ‘Cocoa, Forests and Peace Initiative’, aim to eliminate, by 2020, deforestation from the country's cocoa supply chain. A Framework Agreement for Joint Action in relation to this initiative has been signed by the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development, Ministry of Agriculture, National Cocoa Federation, Casa Luker, World Resources Institute and The Sustainable Trade Initiative which contains 8 points that seek to improve and maintain the social and ecological resilience of cocoa cultivation.

Canada —
In 2017, the Government of Canada announced the launch of a $155-million Clean Growth Program to fund clean technology projects in the areas of energy, mining and forestry. Forty-eight per cent of forests in Canada are certified. In addition, the Government of Canada, in collaboration with provincial and territorial governments and Indigenous partners, is moving into the implementation phase of the Forest Bioeconomy Framework for Canada which provides opportunities in relation to the bioeconomy, renewables, biomaterials and other bioproducts that limit or reduce carbon output while preserving biodiversity. Also, a five-year $3-billion investment by federal, provincial and territorial governments to strengthen agriculture was launched in 2017 by the Canadian Agricultural Partnership. (6NR)
