Sustainable Innovation
Across The Supply Chain
The world's population is now above 8 billion. Most food in the world continues to be produced by small scale farmers. By 2050 the world's population is projected to be at 9.7 billion. Against this backdrop, crop yields in the developed world continue to stagnate or decline. Nutrition levels in grains and vegetables produced by intensive farming are in decline.
Africa, with a population of 1.4 billion, is the last continent yet to be intensively farmed. Currently, in sub-Saharan Africa, circa 80% of all food is produced by small scale farmers. However, the continent's population is projected to rise from 1.4 billion to 2.5 billion by 2050.
Globally, only 3% of public finance is devoted to food systems, while food systems are responsible for 33% of greenhouse gas emissions.
There is an urgent need for transformation in the practice of global and, in particular, African agribusiness.
