dc.descriptionCOVID-19-induced disruptions to trade, logistics and market flows are making it difficult to maintain the stability of agrifood supply, demand and operations across Europe and Central Asia. Since early April, FAO has been conducting rapid weekly surveys to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on agrifood value chains in certain programme countries. Of major concern is the decline in food trade volumes due to logistics disruption, export restrictions, tighter health and safety regulations and border controls, dwindling demand, and fewer sales by small producers. Data collected in June and July 2020 suggest that the pandemic has had implications for transportation, storage, sales, the labour market and the availability of inputs in most countries. COVID-19 has substantially affected the financial situation of agrifood supply-chain operators, shrinking their economic options and triggering undesirable survival strategies to cope with the financial shock, including the sale of productive assets. This action sheet presents FAO's COVID-19 Response and Recovery Programme's key priority area of "Trade and food safety standards" for Europe and Central Asia.
