Agricultural technologies and trade policy in Central Asia: Issues and prospects

Bishkek, Kyrgyz Republic, 26/05/2015 - 28/05/2015

Regional Workshop

The training workshop will facilitate a greater understanding of the different processes of trade and economic integration affecting the agricultural sector in Central Asia. Given the different degrees of the countries’ involvement in global and regional trading schemes, lessons learned from reforming agriculture will be drawn upon. Apart from experiences within Central Asia, emphasis will be placed on outcomes of agricultural and trade reforms in other countries. The lessons from international experience will provide valuable inputs to the discussion on the opportunities for developing the agricultural sector in Central Asia.
