Hear the voices of our COVID-19 frontliners in agriculture all over Asia.
AsiaDHRRA partner FOs in Indonesia (KSPS, KPA NMC), Lao PDR (FASAP), Myanmar (AFFM) , Philippines (ISLACO, GLOWCORP), and Vietnam (AGFU, PTFC, LCFU), share how they are facing the global pandemic.
“The current outbreak of the COVID-19 virus in developing countries is very likely to disrupt food production and supply at the global level. Although the outbreak in many of these countries is at its early stages, interruptions in commerce as well as in local production, storage, processing and distribution are already observed in many countries. Equally problematic are observed shortfalls in supply of agricultural inputs and resulting incapacity of farmers to prepare their fields for the next season. This is very likely to greatly affect food security and safety in the immediate future in all OECD countries.”
