As an Agricultural Policy Analyst at the Organisation for the Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in Paris, Koen Deconinck analyses trends and challenges for global agriculture and across the food chain. He also looks at how policies affect countries that work together in the OECD. The Netherlands plays a key part in our joint efforts to improve global food systems, Deconinck notes. He points out that working together is key. Otherwise, efforts can be scattered, and opportunities missed.
