The Conference recommended that FAO work with member countries to increase productivity of crops that are of particular relevance to the diets of food- and nutritionally-insecure people, including starchy staples, pulses, coarse grains, vegetables, horticultural crops and oil crops.

The draft resolution was astonishingly unprofessional and full of fallacies and baseless, unverifiable allegations.

Salient research accomplishments of 1990s included identification and establishment of field scale deficiencies of B and Zn in cotton (Rashid et al., 2000), wheat, citrus, mango, and other corps, establishment of Fe deficiency in apple andlegume crops (like peanut and chickpea) (Rashid et al.,1997; Rashid and Din, 1992) and citrus (Rashid et al. 1991), calibration of more efficient and economical soil tests for micronutrients (i.e., AB-DTPA for Zn Cu, Fe and Mn and dilute HCl for B) (Rashid et al., 1997c; Rashid et al., 1994) and determination of plant analysis diagnostic criteria for a number of locally grown crop genotypes (Table 3).

The absolute impunity of Israel as it confiscated land, demolished homes, extended illegal settlements and restricted the movement of Palestinians was alarming.

What is most striking is that the programme did the same thing, representing only 0.7 per cent of the families’ income, as measured by the research.
