The Assembly recommends that the Committee of Ministers invite the governments of member states:
9.1 to devote as quickly as possible 0.7% of their GNP to development aid (the target set by the United Nations in 1970) and in so doing to pay due attention to the agricultural needs of each beneficiary country;
9.2 to help countries which are at present unable to produce the minimum food supply necessary to develop their agriculture so that it is capable of meeting at least the basic food requirements of the population;
9.3 to set up, under the auspices of the United Nations and in co-operation with the authorities in the beneficiary country(ies), a form of sponsorship and partnership aimed at co-ordinating development, in particular of a sustainable agriculture, providing advice and at the same time promoting respect for democratic principles in this (these) country(ies);
9.4 to pay special attention to the development of local agriculture and family production in these countries, so as to conserve arable land and prevent rural emigration, as well as to the training of farmers, in particular women and young people, in sustainable farming methods;
9.5 to assist these countries in the development of agricultural structures, in particular at local level, by introducing or modernising production methods, distribution chains and financing systems, by promoting local trade, products and markets and by creating co-operatives, associations and professional organisations;
9.6 to associate the professional organisations (farmers' unions, chambers of agriculture, etc.) and the voluntary sector (associations, non-governmental organisations, etc.) of their own countries with these activities;
9.7 to reduce the sale and export of arms to the developing countries and to finance development projects in the civil sector, in particular the agricultural sector.
