Drivers of Agricultural Growth, Prices, and Food
Security
![Page 4: Rising Food Prices? The Role of Agricultural R&D](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042713/544406b1b1af9f600a8b474f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Supply and demand pressures affect agricultural growth and food security
Demand pressures Supply pressures
▪ Population growth – direct– Increased domestic /
urban use– Increased food demand
▪ Economic growth –– Increased urban water
use– Increased industrial
water use– More resource-intensive
diets ▪ Biofuels/Bioenergy
▪ Climate mitigation
▪ Conservation and biodiversity
▪ Land and water scarcity
▪ Climate change
▪ Investments in agricultural research
▪ Science and technology policy
▪ Management and governance reform
Higher food prices
More variable food prices
Pressures on ecosystems (quantity and quality impacts)
Increased competition and higher prices for natural resources
Economic / political conflict
Food security at risk

The IMPACT Model
IMPACT – “International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade” Global partial equilibrium model Global
• 115 countries • 281 food production units (countries x river basins)
• 46 agricultural commodities

IMPACT Model Structure Crop area is a function of crop prices, irrigation investment,
water input, climate change Yield is a function of crop price, input price, irrigation
investment, water inputs, exogenous yield growth Yield growth is a function of investment in agricultural
research, irrigation, and rural roads Food demand is a function of commodity prices, income,
and population Feed demand is a function of livestock production, feed
prices, and feeding efficiency Biofuel demand is computed based on policy mandates and
targets Crush demand is a function of crush profit margins

Increased Investment Scenario Compared to Baseline
Increased Investment in Agricultural R&D• Baseline assumes continuation of trend growth, 2000‐2008, in CGIAR and NARS agricultural R&D.
• Increased investment scenario: Level of CGIAR and NARS investment in agricultural R&D is doubled by 2020 compared to the baseline, then baseline trend to 2030

Conclusions Doubling of public investment in agricultural R&D by 2020: direct positive effects on crop yields Indirect impacts on prices, crop area, production, food consumption and food security World prices of major commodities decline relative to baseline Significant improvements in food security indicators ‐ number of malnourished children and population at risk of hunger
