  • Increase in ‘key commodities’ production in MS by (decrease in % net imports or X million tons)
  • Increase # of Member States producing select key commodities
  • Adoption of IOFS developed OIC food system policy framework across majority Member States

Programmes of Pillar 3

Transboundary Pest Control Management

Strategic Objectives:

Obj # 5: Provide technical expertise to strengthen the capacity of MS

Program description

This Program supports the Capacity Building pillar of IOFS strategy in strengthening OIC MS’s transboundary pest control management for protecting agriculture outputs.

Current & Potential Activities: (These activities are not final and definitive and would be su bject to management review and changes)

  • Mitigation Programs Training (current): Engage with various food and agri stakeholders across MS on transboundary pest control management.
  • Pest Control Technologies & Best Practices Resource: Developing resource bank on related technologies and solutions for MS.

10 Year Strategic Goals

  • Tech Monitoring system for transboundary pest control established.

Strategic Partners:

Global: FAO

OIC: COMCEC, SESRIC, ICDT

Cross-linked IOFS Programs:

Bio & Agritech Program

OIC Food Balance Database (contribute OIC pest movement mapping, pest control technology module)
