The TA is aligned with 20 National Strategy including the King Rama 9-s philosophy. TA will build technical and institutional capacities to assess vulnerabilities, demonstrate climate- smart agriculture practices and digital technologies for traceability of agri-food products, and support local governments to integrate climate change concerns in agricultural planning.
