Yes, a big eye-openers for #FoodSystemsTransformation is the extent to which LMICs, have been negatively impacted by the Russia-Ukraine war. We can't buy wheat & can't buy the fertiliser to produce the other crops we need! The solution is? ... CGIAR FAO in Africa Excellence in Agronomy

The ordinary person on the street in Africa will tell you the climate has changed. The evidence from scientists confirm our experiences. We need investment in both mitigation & adaptation on multiple fronts to propel the magnitude of transformation momentum required. CGIAR

.... How far we have come with the Vision for Adapted Crops and Soils (VACS) Initiative. A number of efforts're emerging across multiple fronts: research, the #PeriodicTableOfoods, culliary enthusiasm etc. The #VACSMovement is on its way!

Great! Taking the opportunity to draw attention to the The African Union Great Green Wall across the #Sahel leveraging traditional and new knowledge to fight desertification. Quite impressive and worthy of investment! Im sure Eliane Ubalijoro can say more CGIAR CIFOR-ICRAF Food and Agriculture Organization

This initiative is an excellent example of what 'taking technologies & innovations to the farmers' entails. It calls for working on multiple fronts simultaneously: climate change, soil health, environmental health, quality seeds and breeds etc. And investment in adoption!

Counterfeit agricultural products reduce farm outputs, expose consumers to health risks and disrupt incomes and livelihoods of smallholder farmers, who are Africa's majority. Thank you Anti Counterfeit Network Africa for efforts to address conterfeits in this and other sectors. ILRI.org Namukolo Covic
