Who we are



The Secretariat of the Tropical Agriculture Platform  (TAP) is hosted by the Research and Extension Unit, Office of Innovation, of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. The TAP Secretariat manages TAPipedia.

The team working in support of TAP (including TAPipedia) is composed of enthusiastic professionals with different backgrounds and supporting also other project and activities within the Research and Extension Unit.

The Unit manages also another knowledge platform, called “TECA - Technologies and Practices for Small Agricultural Producers”, which gathers successful agricultural technologies and practices to facilitate knowledge exchange and help family farmers in the field.
