It accounts for the bulk of agricultural production, but the farmers who create this wealth have little access to land and production resources. Despite these difficulties, rural family farms have maintained and even improved food production thanks to effective adaptation and diversification strategies.

Each member country is represented by one person on the Board of Directors, which elects the Executive Committee from among its members.
