Abu Dhabi Food Control Authority (ADFCA)'s Agriculture Affairs Sector organized at Al Danat Resort in Al Ain an awareness workshop for animal breeders in the presence of a number of ADFCA officials and officials of the Farmers' Services Centre.

HE Mubarak Al Mansouri, Executive Director of the Agriculture Affairs Sector, welcomed the gathering at the opening and said improving agricultural production was among ADFCA's top priorities. "ADFCA seeks to do this through programs and initiatives for optimizing the use of irrigation water across the emirate, as well as through Good Agricultural Practices and latest technologies. Guaranteeing the safety and quality of farming products as well as conserving precious natural resources are crucial to our strategies," he pointed out.

Al Mansouri added that ADFCA provided farming support for both animal and plant production in order to help farmers improve their incomes and to increase the market share of locally produced vegetables and livestock.

The workshop consisted of two sessions and were followed by discussions.
