The Work of Peace Goes on

Seeking to raise nutrition levels by increasing production from farms, forests and fisheries, FAO, a Specialized Agency of the U.N., fights hunger, one of the allies of war. With the co-operation of Governments in S .E. Asia, FAO is working to improve and standardize the rice crops, staple food for the millions in this part of the world.
