    An FAO Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission (CFSAM) visited all main food producing areas in Timor-Leste from 27 April to 9 May 2021 to estimate the 2021 crop production and the import requirements during the 2021/22 marketing year (April/March). The Mission’s aim was to provide an accurate picture of severity and extent of the shocks that affected the agriculture sector in 2021 and identify the country’s main agricultural support needs until the next harvest. In particular, as officially requested by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MAF), the CFSAM assessed the impact of the tropical storm and floods as well as FAW and ASF outbreaks on the agriculture sector.

    The brief builds on existing and previous collaborations between FAO and HarvestPlus to deploy biofortification to create healthier food systems. It shares practical guidance on successfully integrating biofortification into policies and programs aimed at addressing malnutrition. The brief also identifies types of policies to target, recommends specific actions (such as support for strengthening of crop breeding programs or strengthening systems for multiplying and marketing seed and planting material), and also includes guidance for decisionmakers on the costs of implementing biofortification. The brief concisely summarizes a wealth of essential information, including:
    • Availability, agronomic, and nutritional properties of biofortified crops worldwide;
    • Evidence on farmer adoption and consumer acceptance, the nutrition and health benefits, and the cost-effectiveness of biofortified foods;
    • Figures on the number of people growing and benefiting from biofortified crops;
    • Answers to frequently-asked questions about biofortification.
