The Partnership Programme on Food and Agriculture (FTPP), a collaboration between the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and Türkiye, includes a spectrum of activities aimed at strengthening the food and agriculture sector in Central Asia. FAO, with funding from Türkiye, is now midway through the implementation of a three-year project to improve food safety systems in the region to deliver safe, reliable and nutritious food from farm to table.

With the overall aim of strengthening official food safety controls and regional cooperation, the FTPP project supports Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Republic of Moldova, Tajikistan and Türkiye in following risk-based food inspection procedures and in improving food safety risk communication with relevant public authorities, food businesses and consumers.
