DPR Korea and FAO

Achievements and success stories

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has been providing support to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) for well over three decades. FAO is normally the focal point for the United Nation’s Agriculture/Food Security Theme Group and its Sub-group on Sloping Land Management, which are overseen by the UN Resident Coordinator. Over the last three decades, about 200 field projects assisted by FAO have received total funding worth US$64.4 million. FAO has supported the DPRK’s efforts to achieve food security through technical assistance in areas such as agro-forestry, soybean cultivation, fruit production, marine aquaculture and capacity building. FAO has also supported rehabilitation activities related to double cropping, conservation agriculture, horticulture and the prevention of transboundary animal diseases such as avian influenza and foot-and-mouth disease. Policy-makers, government staff and researchers in the DPRK have benefited from various international study tours and regional FAO programmes that have enabled the exchange of experiences and expertise.
