The Global Food Security Challenge
(www.worldbank.org/wdr2008)
GLDN for ECA, Dec 18th
World Development Report 2008
Critical Role of Agriculture in Food
Security
 In ensuring adequate food supply
 Global food supply and demand (and shocks)
 National food supply and demand for many
countries (Africa, China, India)
 In providing means for poor to access to
food
 75 percent of the world’s poor are rural, and
most depend on agriculture for livelihoods
 Essential role of agriculture in providing
subsistence and incomes of the poor

Major conclusion of
World Development
Report 2008:
Agricultural growth is
two to four times
more effective in
reducing poverty than
growth coming from
other sectors

Food Production—Continuing
Challenges in the 21st Century
A greater global challenge
 More from less
 The end of long-term falling food prices?
 Trade offs with the environment
Increased volatility
 Climate change, energy prices
 Future policies on biofuels, reserves, export bans
Inclusive growth
 Sharing benefits between producers and consumers
 Connecting smallholders to emerging markets

INVESTING FOR FOOD

Requires Emphasis on Both Technological
and Institutional Innovations:
World Development Report 2008
Technological innovations
 Higher yield potential to revamp productivity growth
 Overcoming key resource constraints (water,
drought)
 Role of GMOs for poor farmers and consumers
 Substitution of fossil energy use
 Adaptation to climate change and reduced GHGs
Institutional innovations
 More efficient and inclusive supply chains
 Collective action by farmer organizations
 Risk management for more frequent price shock

Implications for the Global
Community
 Do no harm
 Reform farm and biofuel subsidies
 Mitigation of climate change
Invest in global public goods
 R&D (CGIAR)
Get agriculture back on the agenda
 Reverse trend in foreign assistance
 Revamp national food and agricultural strategies
