Ireland’s Leadership Role in Creating Global Value Chains in Agri-food
14th July 2015
Challenges to Global Agri-food Value Chains• Need to increase food production by 60% by 2050• 9bn population, 180m added to the middle classes
globally each year • Agriculture is challenged –
• Slow-down in productivity growth• Limited availability of new arable land and loss of
existing arable land• Climate change• Price and availability of energy and water• Impact of urbanisation on rural labour supply• Growing demand for protein
Challenges to Global Agri-food Value Chains
• Increasing complexity of agri-food value chains – processed and prepared consumer foods eg today’s pizza – 35 ingredients from 60 countries in one box • Every day, globally food businesses consume
millions of tonnes of raw materials, generate vast amounts of data, millions of man-hours of experience and operate a global network of suppliers and customers• Consumer awareness and trust issues – breaches
will have an immediate effect
