“…There is a clear and urgent call to transform our food systems as a critical nexus to tackle ongoing global climate, biodiversity, equity, and nutrition crises. Many food and agricultural innovations are being developed and scaled but these innovations often target sector-specific problems and remain disconnected from the more complex demand for transformative change at scale. …”

Developing just transition pathways for Africa’s agriculture towards low emission and climate resilient development under a 1.5°C global warming por Mapfumo, P., Rurinda, J., Cramer, Laura K., Mushore, T.D., Wamukoya, George

“…We argue that the just transition pathways for Africa’s agriculture should be anchored on reprogramming of the cropping, livestock and fishery systems for climate-proofing with a specific focus on the following underpinnings: financing the advancement of science, technology and innovation; restoring neglected or underulitised crops and livestock genetic pools; regenerating soil fertility and advancing soil health; restoring degraded land; protecting natural ecosystems and biodiversity; accessing quality education training and information technologies; and developing markets and creating novel distribution and trade opportunities. …”

Utilization and transfer of forest genetic resources: a global review por Koskela, Jaarko, Vinceti, B., Dvorak, W., Bush, D., Dawson, Ian K., Loo, J., Dahl Kjaer, E., Navarro, C., Padolina, C., Bordacs, S., Jamnadass, Ramni H., Graudal, Lars, Ramamonjisoa, L.

“…Transferred germplasm has been deployed to grow trees for numerous purposes, ranging from the production of wood and non-wood products to the provision of ecosystem services such as the restoration of forests for biodiversity conservation. The oldest form of R&D, provenance trials, revealed early on that seed origin has a major influence on the performance of planted trees. …”

“…At issue is whether SSA can meet this vast increase in cereal demand without greater reliance on cereal imports or major expansion of agricultural area and associated biodiversity loss and greenhouse gas emissions. Recent studies indicate that the global increase in food demand by 2050 can be met through closing the gap between current farm yield and yield potential on existing cropland. …”
