Thank you @IFADPresident for your support! Indeed: no data, no smart decisions. We are proud to work with @WorldBank @FAO and @IFAD to advance ag and rural data. We are in good hands with IFAD ensuring #50x2030 data is used for evidence-based decision-making #DataSmartAg

Il n’y de prise de décision correcte sans données de qualité. C’est pourquoi le FIDA participe avec la @FAO et la Banque mondiale à l’initiative @50x2030 qui vise à renforcer les systèmes de données agricoles et rurales dans 50 pays.
