Zero Hunger world is within reach, but we must work together to achieve it
Today, on World Food Day, the global community is mobilizing to reach a Zero Hunger world.

The country relies heavily on agriculture, yet faces shrinking arable land and increasing soil degradation. Enhancing factors such as climate change and rising demand for land and natural resources in general are creating a downward cycle from which forest degradation appears as one of the particularly challenging consequences.
