Under the terms of the MoU, the two parties will collaborate in leveraging the latest technologies to optimize food and water management, promoting foreign direct investments in sustainable agriculture, facilitating trade in food and agricultural products, and sharing knowledge of national governance frameworks that seek to address the critical water, food, and energy nexus.

The agreement with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine of Ireland will spur the exchange of successful innovation- and technology-based experiences in all aspects of food security and sustainability.

This is a relationship that can grow further to become even stronger in the years ahead.
