Trade

IATP has long been a leader in making sure global agreements protect the rights of farmers around the world. We are active at the United Nations, World Trade Organization, and through various bilateral and multilateral agreements to ensure that the rights of farmers to receive a fair price, engage in conservation and sustainable practices, and even just to stay on their land, are upheld and respected. We also monitor trade agreements to make sure food safety, environmental safeguards and the rights of farm workers are protected.
