dc.descriptionEnsuring food security in the face of climate-change is an extremely pressing challenge. Between now and 2050, food production will have to increase by 60 percent to meet the growing demand for food and feed (FAO estimate). At the same time, competition over natural resources is expected to grow. Climate change will exacerbate efforts to increase food production due to greater unpredictability of weather patterns and adverse impacts on water, land and other natural resources. Agricultural system s need to become more productive, efcient, stable and more resilient to risks, shocks and long-term climate uctuations. This transition requires major changes in agricultural practices, institutions, policies and nancial mechanisms.
