"The dairy cattle and livestock division of FranceAgriMer stems from the merger of five divisions: OFIMER, Livestock division (OFIVAL), ONIGC and ONIPPAM and VINIFLHOR. FranceAgriMer faces the challenges concerning food, economic, environmental and energy issues that lie ahead of us! In particular:

1. The markets: We provide business intelligence and market knowledge, manage European Community measures regulating the market, generate alerts in case of upcoming crises.

2. Sectoral management: We enhance the economic efficiency of sectors, participate in the implementation of a policy of sustainable development and quality, prevent potential risks, thus avoiding damage to the sectors in question.

 

3. Beyond producers and sector operators: We promote the organization of producers, encourage interprofessional dialogue, contribute to technical cooperation activities, also on an international level."

To express themselves spontaneously, OFIVAL, specialist in agriculture, occasionally uses the services of translators and interpreters for its international negotiations.
