Resumen
Descripción
This is the fifth newsletter from FAO in Bangladesh, covering recent news, highlights, and successes. Farmers and food processors are set to benefit from Dutch expertise and technology after a high-level government and business delegation, led by the agriculture minister, visited the Netherlands. The delegation comprised of senior officials from the Ministry of Agriculture, several captains of industry, and representatives from FAO. The Prime Minister addressed the World Food Day seminar, UN Food Systems Summit, and UN Climate Change Conference. Inception workshops were held for a pesticide removal project and a climate resilient fisheries project. Thousands of livestock producer groups were created. FAO supports fishers to adapt to the climate change challenge. Crop diversification for farmers has boosted their climate resilience and profits. There was a youth discussion how to reduce food waste. A pilot farmers’ market selling chemical and pesticide-free fresh produce in Dhaka proved very popular.
