Agriculture Production

Sustainable food production is critical to meeting growing global food needs in a context of climate change and natural resource scarcity. IFPRI’s research in this area looks at emerging food and agricultural technologies with potential to advance food and nutrition security, and at innovations in natural resource management policies, climate and energy policies, bio-safety systems, property rights, and collective action that can lead to improved food security and sustainability. IFPRI’s research can help to identify and prevent future threats to food and nutrition security and ensure that scarce budgetary resources are directed toward sustainable development investments that achieve the greatest impact. IFPRI’s agriculture production research is closely aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 1, SDG 2, SDG 7, SDG 8, SDG 10, SDG 13, and SDG 15.
