Can Tanzania feed itself by 2050?: Estimating cereal self-sufficiency to 2050 by Makoi, Joachim H. J. R., van Ittersum, Martin K., Wiebe, Keith D.

“…Increased price volatility of major food crops (Koning et al. 2008; Lagi et al. 2011) and an abrupt surge in land area devoted to crop production in recent years (Grassini et al. 2013) reflect the powerful forces underpinning this challenge. The 2008 price spikes triggered the Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Food Programme to issue warnings and call for a 60–70 percent increase in food production by 2050 to meet the escalating food demand for the expected 9.7 billion global population.…”

Enhanced climate resilience in agriculture: Entry points for public action in Kenya by Ringler, Claudia, Woelcke, Johannes, Okoba, Barrack, Bryan, Elizabeth

“…Drought is by far the most pressing climate-related shock experienced by Kenyan farmers, resulting in declines in crop yields, food shortages, and food price spikes. At the same time, climate change is expected to result in a drier coast while the highlands and northern Kenya are likely to become wetter. …”

Examining the dynamic relationship between spot and future prices of agricultural commodities by Hernandez, Manuel A., Torero, Máximo

“…Our results support, for example, the viability of implementing a global virtual reserve, recently proposed by von Braun and Torero (2008, 2009), to prevent disproportionate spikes in grain spot prices through signals and, if necessary, market assessment in the exchange of futures.…”

A simple extraction procedure for efficient routine detection of pathogenic bacteria in plant material by polymerase chain reaction by Llop, Pablo, Caruso, Paola, Cubero, Jaime, Morente, Clara, López, María M.

“…The protocol developed was efficient for detecting a Gram-positive bacterium, Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus and several Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria (Ralstonia solanacearum, Erwinia amylovora, Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri) with a sensitivity of 10(2)-10(3) cfu/ml in spiked samples. It was also efficient to specifically identify such bacteria in naturally infected plant material. …”

Japan reaps the consequences of flawed rice policies by Godo, Yoshihisa, Yamauchi, Futoshi

“…In response to soaring supermarket rice prices, the Japanese government released 210,000 tonnes of rice from its emergency reserves in February 2025, despite an abundance of rice production in the country. The price spike since summer 2024 did not occur because of a production shortage, but due to media coverage of extreme summer heat, panic buying after an earthquake warning, speculation and rigidities and missing markets in the rice system. …”
