Descripción
This report is submitted to the G20 Mexican Presidency by Bioversity, CGIAR Consortium, FAO, IFAD, IFPRI, IICA, OECD, UNCTAD, Coordination team of UN High Level Task Force on the Food Security Crisis, WFP, World Bank and WTO. It responds to Mexico's request for information and advice on practical actions that could be undertaken to sustainably improve agricultural productivity growth, in particular on small family farms. The approach taken reflects the view of the collaborating international org anisations that a successful strategy for sustainable agricultural productivity growth requires significant improvements in the investment climate in many countries, in agricultural innovation systems and farming practices, in the management of natural resources, and in specific policies and efforts to close the productivity gap of small family farms. This report first examines current trends in productivity and its main drivers ― innovation, investment and policy.
