F. Annex to the Memorandum Setting out Guidelines for Cooperation between FAO and UNIDO in the Field of Industrial Development

Food and agriculture (including forestry and fisheries)

RAW MATERIAL 1. FAO operations, belonging together in the chain with production, and/or other operations which are inherent in meeting food and nutritional requirements. These operations include pilot projects, where appropriate, for training and demonstration of modern processing techniques and technologies, handling of raw materials and marketing and distribution of processed products hereunder indicated 2. FAO/UNIDO JOINT CONCERN 3. UNIDO operations, belonging together with other industrial development activity and/or other operations which need to be dealt with. These operations include pilot and demonstration plants and projects for industrial activities on subjects hereunder included.
