Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) have recently signed a new memorandum of understanding (MoU) to continue their joint humanitarian efforts going on in Niger since 2012.
The MoU seeks to enhance agricultural activities in Niger during the 2016-2017 season, by providing farmers in deprived areas with improved seeds, guidance, and technical support. A QRCS specialist group would supervise and advise the beneficiaries, in coordination with the Ministry of Agriculture and local authorities.
