This publication sets goals of 20% improvement per decade on each of its three goals: economic growth and opportunity, food security and nutrition, and environmental sustainability. Realizing these goals on a global level will require the right combination of actions, balancing agriculture-sector growth with sustainability.In the coming decades, a growing and increasingly affluent global population will demand a greater quantity, variety and nutritional value of food than the world has ever produced before. Meeting this demand will require a 70% increase in food production, challenging a natural resource base that is already under significant strain. It will also require major increases in investment – by up to 50% for developing countries alone – in an era of economic crisis and austerity. In order to feed a population of 9 billion in 2050, the world will need a New Vision for Agriculture - delivering food security, environmental sustainability and economic opportunity through agriculture. This will require producing more food with fewer resources while reinvigorating rural economies. It can only be achieved through collaboration, investment and innovation among all stakeholders. The report outlines six elements that are essential stepping stones toward success in a large-scale transformation effort. These are illustrated by examples from national initiatives underway in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
