Descripción
Small-scale family farming is the dominant form of agriculture worldwide, with over 500 million family farms, ranging from smallholders to medium-scale farmers. These farms are integral to maintaining diversified agricultural systems, preserving traditional food products, contributing to better nutrition for populations, and protecting the environment. In the NENA region, SSFFs contribute more than 80 percent of agricultural production, playing a crucial role in transforming food systems. Sustainable food systems aim to provide healthy, affordable and safe food, yet globally, current food management practices do not adequately provide pathways to improve nutrition of populations.
