Its headquarters is in Rome, Italy, and it maintains regional and field offices worldwide, operating in over 130 countries.

It also conducts research, provides technical assistance to projects, operates educational and training programs, and collects agricultural output, production, and development data.
The FAO is governed by a biennial conference representing each member country and the European Union, which elects a 49-member executive council.
