Field(s) of expertise:

Most CSOs are engaged with lobbying and advocacy towards influencing decision makers to formulate policies that they believe will inure to the benefits of farmers to increase crop productivity and earn higher incomes to live better lives that will attract the youth into agriculture to sustain the industry.
The missing link is that grassroot organizations and producer associations are often not engaged. FAO must directly engage grassroot and producer farmer organizations to support them.
