About Agriculture Working Group

The Agriculture Working Group (AWG) was formed during the G20's sixth meeting in Cannes, France, in 2011. This summit led to the creation of AWG, most notably in the field of agriculture and food security, with a special rollout of the Agricultural Market Information System (AMIS) and the acknowledgement of an Action Plan on Food Price Volatility and Agriculture as tangible measures to address global agriculture and food challenges.
