Resumen
Descripción
The food and agricultural sector in Mongolia is confronted with many challenges posed by the impact of climate change, increased frequency of natural disasters, loss of biodiversity, erosion of the natural resource base, increasing food price volatility, inefficient supply chains and other challenges. The last few years have tested the resilience and exposed the vulnerabilities in the global agrifood systems. As the effects of the external shocks and climate change on food systems become more apparent, the case for investment in sustainable food systems has never been greater. In the years to come, science, technology and innovation will be critical to driving the transformation of food systems towards sustainability. In that context, digital solutions can be a real driving force to change perspectives, enable social licensing, design market incentives, build trust and develop transition pathways that can accelerate the transition towards more sustainable agrifood systems. Despite the fact that Mongolia is self-sufficient in meat, wheat, and potatoes, agricultural and livestock productivity remain poor, limiting Mongolia's capacity to meet rising domestic demand.
