Benefit–Cost Analysis of Increased Funding for Agricultural Research and Development in the Global South
This paper conducts a benefit–cost analysis of expanding agricultural research and development (R&D) in the Global South. We extend a recent modeling exercise that used IFPRI’s IMPACT model to estimate the investments required to reduce the global prevalence of hunger below 5%. After 35 years, the increased funding is estimated to increase agricultural output by 10%, reduce the prevalence of hunger by 35%, reduce food prices by 16%, and increase …
Uncovering the economic value of natural enemies and true costs of chemical insecticides to cotton farmers in China
Little empirical evidence on economic value of biological control of pests at farm level is available to improve economic decision-making by farmers and policy makers. Using insect sampling and household survey in an integrated bio-economic analysis framework, this paper studies farmers' crop management practices in cotton in the North China Plain, and estimates the marginal value of natural enemies and costs of chemical insecticides to farmers. …
Income growth and climate change effects on global nutrition security to mid-century
Agricultural investments and hunger in Africa modeling potential contributions to SDG2 – Zero Hunger
We use IFPRI's IMPACT framework of linked biophysical and structural economic models to examine developments in global agricultural production systems, climate change, and food security. Building on related work on how increased investment in agricultural research, resource management, and infrastructure can address the challenges of meeting future food demand, we explore the costs and implications of these investments for reducing hunger in Afri…

Smart Investments in Sustainable Food Production
Farmers in mixed crop-livestock systems produce about half of the world’s food. In small holdings around the world, livestock are reared mostly on grass, browse, and nonfood biomass from maize, millet, rice, and sorghum crops and in their turn supply manure and traction for future crops. Animals act as insurance against hard times and supply farmers with a source of regular income from sales of milk, eggs, and other products. Thus, faced with pop…
The value of the high Aswan Dam to the Egyptian economy
Strategic environmental assessments for genetically modified organisms
Genetically modified crops appear to provide a promising option in finding sustainable solutions to end global hunger and poverty, but strategic decisions need to be made on how to spend limited agricultural research funds. Potentially, strategic environmental assessment (SEA) may be used as part of an environmental management system to introduce mainstreaming of environmental considerations in the policy research and priority-setting process of …
Global Food Security
Global food security will remain a worldwide concern for the next 50 years and beyond. Recently, crop yield has fallen in many areas because of declining investments in research and infrastructure, as well as increasing water scarcity. Climate change and HIV/AIDS are also crucial factors affecting food security in many regions. Although agroecological approaches offer some promise for improving yields, food security in developing countries could …
Asian economic crisis and the long-term global food situation
Prospects for food demand and supply in Central Asia
Global projections for root and tuber crops to the year 2020
China's Food Economy to the Twenty-first Century
Output response to prices and public investment in agriculture
China's past, present, and future food economy
This paper synthesizes the main findings and highlights the insights of six articles that examine how China has managed its agricultural resources in the past, how agriculture is performing at present, and what challenges lie ahead as the country seeks to meet the food needs of its growing population. It provides common threads of empirical evidence on China's agricultural growth, describing its interrelationships with institutions, development p…
