The five-day Resilient African Feed and Fodder Systems (RAFFS) Project Technical and Steering Committee meeting is being hosted by the African Union-InterAfrican for Animal Resources (AU-IBAR).
The RAFFS Project was rolled out in January 2023 and has focused on understanding the situation of the effect of the global COVID-19 pandemic, climate change and conflict between Russia and Ukraine in the feed and fodder sector.
