Projects
The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) is actively engaged in supporting Bhutan's agricultural sector. Our projects address a range of areas, from building resilience against threats like African Swine Fever to promoting sustainable farming practices. Overall, FAO's projects in Bhutan and collaboration with stakeholders aim to improve food security, enhance livelihoods, and promote more robust agrifood systems.
