Extract

Representatives of six Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) governments (France, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey) and the government of Yugoslavia signed an agreement setting up the International Center for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies on May 21, 1962, in Paris. The center was established to deal with the shortage of scientific and technical personnel hampering agricultural and economic development in the Mediterranean area. A draft agreement establishing the center had been approved by the OECD Council on January 20, 1962. The center was to be run by a governing body consisting of leading figures in agricultural and economic higher education and research.
