Family Farming Engagement

Family farming plays a pivotal role in ensuring global food security. Producing more than 80 percent of the world’s food in value terms, family farms are central both to rural development and to building resilient, sustainable agrifood systems. Recognizing the vital role that family farms play, FAO strives to further strengthen their agency by fostering innovative family farming policies and programmes, as well as by assisting Member Nations and producer organizations to drive continual improvements for family farming.
