In Lebanon and Morocco, we partnered with IESC and the High Atlas Foundation to promote sustainable agriculture practices. We mobilized U.S.-based technical volunteers to complete 281 assignments to increase food safety, access to rural finance, and environmental sustainability.

Since 1987, we have sent more than 1,400 volunteers — including over 160 of our affiliate Land O’Lakes, Inc. staff and cooperative members — on Farmerto-Farmer (F2F) assignments in 27 countries. These volunteers deliver a range of agricultural expertise to host agribusinesses around the world.
