The 46th session of the CFS appointed a new chair, Thanawat Tiensin of Thailand to preside over its first-ever Multi-Year Programme of Work for 2020-2023, which was approved on Thursday.
Over the next two years, FAO and FMO will work with members of farmers' organizations, staff of SMEs and rural microfinance institutions to improve agri-business management skills, sustainable agro-ecological and processing practices and food loss-reduction techniques. The pilot project of the partnership will be undertaken in Kenya.
