Efficient facilitation of trade in food and agricultural products can provide numerous benefits including enhanced food security, increased export income, increased access to productivity improvement, and nutritionally varied diets. Because foods are normally considered as perishable goods, they require efficient trade regimes and border crossings. Facilitating cross-border flows of food trade helps reduce time spent and minimize physical costs and losses, contributing to enhance food and nutrition security in the ASEAN region.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><div  class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion_builder_column_1_2  fusion-one-half fusion-column-first 1_2\"  style='margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;width:50%;width:calc(50% - ( ( 4% ) * 0.5 ) );margin-right: 4%;'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;\"  data-bg-url=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fusion-text\"><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The ASEAN Sectoral Working Group on Crops (ASWGC) has oversight of the ASEAN Cooperation in crop sub-sector.
