Outline

IFPRI’s baseline projections: • Drivers of agricultural growth• The IMPACT Model• Data for Central Asia• Base scenario results

Climate challenges (IPCC 2014) AgMIP results (PNAS 2014) The role of technologies (Rosegrant et al. 2014)

Drivers of Agricultural Growthand Food Security

Demand drivers• Population growth: 9 billion people in 2050

• Urbanization: 50% in 2008, 78% in 2050

• Income growth

• Oil prices

• Biofuels and bioenergy

• Conservation and biodiversity

Rapid income growth and urbanization – effects on diets and patterns of agricultural production• Increased consumption of fruits and vegetables• Rapid growth in meat consumption and demand for grains

for feed • Change in diets to convenience foods, fast foods• Higher food energy, more sugar, fats and oils• Half of growth in grain demand will be for

Livestock feed• Increased pressure on land and water

Supply drivers• Climate change• Water and land scarcity• Investment in infrastructure• Investment in agricultural

research• Policy

The role of agricultural technologies

• Baseline to 2050, including climate change

• Linked crop models and economic models

• Assessed 11 technologies for maize, rice and wheat

• Impacts on prices, yields, risk of hunger
