Summary

Providing for the nutritional well-being of a growing population is a formidable challenge facing the global community. Global food supplies have kept pace with population growth and the number of malnourished people has declined significantly, yet 840 million people are chronically undernourished. For the three-quarters of the world's poorest people who live in rural areas, it is clear that raising agricultural productivity and incomes derived from it is the most direct and effective way to improve their circumstances.
