  3. What do we know about the future of maize value chains in a changing climate and agri-food system? por Tesfaye, Kindie, Sonder, Kai, Pequeno, Diego, Hartley, Faaiqa, Gbegbelegbe, Sika

    Publicado 2024
    “…Key messages • Population growth, changing diets, and a rapidly growing feed sector are contributing to a sharp increase in global maize demand which is expected to double by 2050 relative to 2010. • Average global maize yield is projected to decrease by 11% under a global warming scenario of 2.0 °C (2060-2084) relative to the 1986–2005 period (in the absence of technological change, adaptation, or market adjustments). • The feed demand for maize is expected to grow faster in the coming few decades largely driven by rapid economic growth and diet shifts in highly populated regions in Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. • Meeting the growing demand for maize will require dramatic increases in production, marketing, utilization, and resilience of maize-based farming systems. • While the supply of maize over the coming decades will be constrained by climate change, and limited availability of land and water, technological and policy innovations will bring new opportunities. • The combined challenges of increasing food demand, persisting poverty and malnutrition, natural resource depletion, and climate change will require the world to double the productivity and boost the sustainability and resilience of maize-based farming systems within planetary boundaries.…”

  4. Global maize production, consumption and trade: trends and R&D implications por Erenstein, Olaf, Debello, Moti J., Sonder, Kai, Mottaleb, Khondoker A., Prasanna, Boddupalli M.

    Publicado 2022
    “…It is a versatile multi-purpose crop, primarily used as a feed globally, but also is important as a food crop, especially in sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, besides other non-food uses. This paper reviews maize production, consumption, and international trade to examine the changing trends in global supply and demand conditions over the past quarter century and the implications for research and development (R&D), particularly in the Global South. …”

  5. Retention of zinc in biofortified rice and maize during processing and cooking por Talsma, Elise F., Gallego, Sonia, Carrillo, Patricia, Londoño Hernandez, Luis Fernando, Grenier, Cécile, Palacios, Natalia

    Publicado 2016
    “…Biofortification is considered a complementary strategy to reduce micronutrient deficiencies in low- and middle -income countries. Rice and maize are two sta¬ble crops commonly consumed in Latin America where zinc deficiency is com¬mon and biofortified rice and maize could potentially assist in reducing these deficiencies. …”
