| FAO - Research and Extension |
| | This Portal provides a gateway to sound information on research, technology, extension and their linkages in order to enable decision-makers, research institutes, extension services and regulatory bodies, to make informed decisions. |
| Technical Cooperation Programme |
| | The Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP) supports the FAO Member Nations through small projects which address specific problems in the agriculture, fisheries and forestry sectors. The aim of a TCP project is to produce tangible and immediate results in the battle against hunger and to catalyse long-term changes. |
| The Field Programme Management Information System (FPMIS). |
| | Projects of the FAO field programme have two main funding sources: (i) the Organization's core budget ( also known as the Regular Programme which is funded by contributions from FAO Member Nations) and (ii) extra-budgetary resources received from multilateral (e.g. mainly UNDP and other UN funds)and bilateral donors. FAO has about 2050 field projects in operation (including 650 TeleFood projects) with a total value of US$ 768 million. About six percent of these are funded by the Regular Programme through the FAO Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP) and the Special Programme for Food Security (SPFS). The remaining 94 percent of field projects are funded from extra-budgetary resources, through the Government Cooperative Programme (36 per cent), Unilateral Trust Fund (UTF) (20 percent), other Trust Funds (43 percent) and the UN Development Programme (one percent).
