This stamp celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Yosr Jamoussi's visual shows a Tunisian farmer wearing the red chechia, tending to a modern irrigation system in a green field. A stylized ear of wheat and the FAO logo (“Fiat Panis”) complete the scene. It illustrates the importance of food security and agricultural modernization for Tunisia. The stamp highlights the know-how of local farmers and the fruitful cooperation with international organizations to optimize the management of water resources, a crucial issue in the Mediterranean environment.
