Animal Production and Health Commission for Asia and the Pacific (APHCA)
The FAO Animal Production and Health Commission for Asia and the Pacific (APHCA) was initiated by Asian nations at the 5th FAO Regional Conference on Animal Production and Health in 1971. APHCA’s mission is to enhance levels of nutrition and standards of living of livestock keepers, livestock producers and livestock value-chain actors through equitable, sustainable and safe livestock sector development. Furthermore, APHCA supports sustainable improvement in rural livestock agriculture and resource use through information-sharing and capacity development for Members. Some of the most important areas currently addressed by APHCA relate to the development of climate-smart livestock, dairy production, animal feeding, transboundary animal and zoonotic diseases, One Health, and antimicrobial resistance. APHCA has been instrumental in the establishment of Dairy Asia.
