Smallholders are 85% of the world’s farms but cultivate just 9% of agricultural land. Because of their scale, many lack access to machinery, finance and certification. Collective solutions like cooperatives and contract farming are key to connecting them to higher-value markets.

Women are not just beneficiaries of agrifood transformation — they are drivers of it. Across rural economies, women power farms, food businesses, and communities. The future of agrifood systems depends on empowering women. #InternationalWomensDay #FoodSystems #GenderEquality

@FAO and @embrapa agreed to strengthen collaboration to support resilient agrifood systems, especially in tropical regions that have one of the fastest-growing populations and most climate-exposed agricultural areas, and where research investment has been historically limited.

Brazil’s agricultural transformation shows the power of long-term investment in science and innovation. @embrapa turned the Cerrado -- once thought unsuitable for farming -- into one of the most productive regions, helping shift Brazil from a food importer to a top exporter.

Land degradation reflects systemic underinvestment in land, often rooted in insecure land tenure. The good news is that this means reforming and enforcing land tenure can be a powerful tool to combat land degradation and food insecurity, ✍️@MaximoTorero ipsnews.net/2026/02/why-te…
