The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has recently published a policy brief, focusing on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the food and agriculture sector and policy responses that are essential to keep the food system functioning.

This paper is the first in a series of Policy Briefs on issues related to COVID-19 and food and agriculture. Forthcoming Briefs will include:

• COVID-19 and the food system
• Impacts on specific supply chains (e.g. seeds, fruit and vegetables)
• Transparency

A framework paper on issues and actions related to COVID-19 and international trade is also available here.
