New platform aims to share information on family farming
A new digital platform has been launched by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) to become a “one-stop shop” for information on family farming.
The Family Farming Knowledge Platform will contain information, data and legislation that can be shared by governments and help policy dialogue with organizations that represent those farmers.
FAO says the initiative is in recognition of the contributions to food security and poverty eradication by the sector that produces about 80 per cent of the world’s food.
