The GFFA bears fruit and provides impulses for international cooperation in agricultural and food policy! At the 12th Berlin Agriculture Ministers’ Conference today, 71 ministers welcomed the efforts of the FAO in developing the concept note for an International Digital Council for Food and Agriculture, and called upon FAO’s governing bodies to support a process for the establishment.
The idea for an International Digital Council for Food and Agriculture emerged at the GFFA 2019, which was held under the topic “Agriculture Goes Digital – Smart Solutions for Future Farming”. The Digital Council shall advise governments and other relevant stakeholders and promote the exchange of ideas and experiences. The concept can be downloaded in full on the FAO website.
