Food Composition Data - Sustainable Food from the Oceans and Inland Waters for Food Security and Nutrition

Following the 7th Network Meeting (October 2022), the working group on Food Composition Data was suggested. FAO is upgrading the INFOODS database, and the U-Fish database will be upgraded with better data and more species. This working group will focus on promoting the importance of food composition data for food and nutrition policies.
