Agri-food production remains vital to the economies in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Food systems are rapidly changing and are driven by income growth, (urban) population growth, shifts in dietary preferences, and agricultural productivity growth. Food systems are also under threat from disrupters like climate change and distorting policies (including trade wars). This paper makes two quantitative, forward-looking assessments for the future of food and agriculture in the LAC region. The first focuses on the long-term prospects - given projected pathways for the main drivers and under the threat of climate change. The second focuses on current vulnerability of LACs agri-food system to short-term disrupters with special reference to impacts of global trade wars and the prospects for reducing that vulnerability. The implications are not uniform across the countries in the region, but vary greatly depending on economic and demographic size, contribution of the agricultural sector to national GDP, natural resource endowments, ecological and climatic characteristics, level of sophistication of rural and agrarian institutions, available technology, farm-size distribution and tenure systems. Policy interventions to address the challenges will need to consider those differences in initial conditions. The foresight assessments are built on IFPRI’s core global model frameworks, IMPACT and MIRAGRODEP. They allow to capture the complexity of agri-food system development and the scenario analysis helps quantify the relative importance of the drivers and disruptors of food system change, which in turn should be of essential to policymakers in setting priorities for steering towards sustainable and stable food systems capable of meeting twenty-first century challenges.

Food safety crisis is never such a big challenge to the stakeholders of the food chain in China, especially to the government authorities of various levels and agribusiness companies. The Future of Food Business is a valuable tool for them as well as the researchers to find practical solutions to address the tough food safety and quality problems in China.” Jiqin Han Professor of Nanjing Agricultural University, China “With an ever growing population and limited natural resources, The Future of Food Business is an extremely valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of the food supply chain, and what the future of food business holds, particularly at a time when we find ourselves grappling with critical issues which will have a lasting impact on natural resources, the entire food system and how it is governed.” Adil K Sattar Executive Director, K&N's, Pakistan “Marcos develops creative ideas based on facts that are likely to contribute to the shaping of the food sector over the next ten years. His visions are accompanied by innovating tools very helpful for entrepreneurs, young managers and government officials by doing their strategic planning in the food sector. I fully share the epilogue of his book where he outlines the importance and the characteristics of managers that ‘make it happen’.” Hans Peter Baier COB Bongrain/Polenghi, South America “In less than 35 years, Africa's population will double to two billion people, approximately 25% of the global population then. Large areas are richly endowed with land and water, yet Africa remains a net importer of food. Professor Marcos Fava Neves, a very good friend of South Africa and Africa, has again shown, through The Future of Food Business, the way to develop globally competitive value chains that provide sustainable food security solutions and growth for the sector.” John Purchase CEO, Agribusiness Chamber, South Africa “I bought the book The Future of Food Business, from Kinokuniya in Singapore. It was a very unusual literature I ever came across on a book stand and bought it immediately after glancing once. I'm in the aquaculture segment operating in Singapore, and found this book very useful for my business future planning. It opened a wider perspective of my business and truly contributed in mapping my business operation and strategic plan.” Frank Tan Marine Life Aquaculture Pte Ltd, Singapore “Considering all the macro-environmental changes that are affecting food companies and agribusiness, Prof. Dr Marcos Fava shows us in a simple and clear way, what are the trends and impacts of this market in the future, and presents solutions, studies and new methods to elaborate an effective Strategic Plan. The Future of Food Business is required reading for students, agribusiness professionals and entrepreneurs.” Liza Rocha Account Manager at Natural Design, Brazil “Marcos Fava Neves is a novel professor who tries to understand why some players apply certain strategies, move in different directions or work with several companies. His insights in this new book are the result of the study of food and agribusiness at theoretical and practical levels. He provides many examples and cases with strong theoretical support leveraged with his experiences as advisor of companies, networks, chains and clusters in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and the US among other countries. As a result, Professor Fava Neves' book, a must-read for students as well as for entrepreneurs, has the makings of a best seller.” Sebastian Senesi and Hernan Palau Professors at University of BuenosAires, Argentina “The challenge that we have to feed the world in the next fifty years is enormous. I am very pleased that Dr Marcos Fava is making the effort to enlighten those people not working in agriculture so that they have a better understanding of the magnitude of the efforts that are needed for us to be successful.” Jerry Moye President of Cobb, Vantress International, USA “This book provides an answer to the future of food business challenges. Really, we are living in a time when the world is more connected, and equally the challenges are more complicated as never before, furthermore society, environment and economics are interconnected more. Within this view, Marcos Fava Neves presents solutions and our future thinking to address the problems in simple and innovative manner with scientific discoveries. In addition, this book is very informative in how to fill the gaps in the world's demand for food and society responsibility during this uncertain and volatile food market. Thank you for showing us the facts, the impacts and how to act …” Mogos Yakob Teweldemedhin Professor at University Polytechnic of Namibia, Africa “Marcos Fava Neves has written a very intelligent book providing both expert as well as the general public stimulating insights into the intricacies of the global food business. In view of its complexities and challenges this book is a must-read.” Guy Kempfert Director, Syngenta Basel, Switzerland Reviews from the First Edition: “Marcos Fava Neves describes the very complex global food chain and suggests methods and tools that can be used by companies to adjust their strategies and operational concepts in an ever rapid changing world. He discusses trends, world food crises, food chain complexity and strategic planning for food companies. It is an essential read for entrepreneurs and researchers who are active in the worldwide food chain network.” Hans Johr Corporate Head of Agriculture, Nestle Switzerland “The Future of Food Business presents a comprehensive look at our challenges in food chain, combining theory with relevant examples in this space. This should be mandatory for all students and professionals that work in agribusiness.” Renato Seraphim Business Development, Bayer Latin America “I think the research and analysis done by Dr Fava Neves leading to a rather conclusive strategy is a good reflection of his deep insight into the food value chain. The presentation style in the book makes for easy reading too.” M D Ramesh CEO of OLAM Africa “The Future of Food Business is an easy-to-read book. Each chapter presents an important issue and ends with intriguing questions for debate, which makes it particularly useful in strategic planning processes. Highly recommended.” Mary Shelman Director of Harvard Business School, USA “The path forward to 2050 requires new innovative thought leaders in order to meet the challenges of increased food production for a growing and affluent global population. Dr Fava Neves motivates readers to rethink how business gets done on frontlines.” Paul Jasper CEO, Covered Logistics and Transportation, USA “Marcos' book elucidates the impending food challenge that will be a central concern for most governments in the immediate future; he puts forth innovative practical solutions to address the issue. The book is a must read for not only concerned people in the public and private enterprises but responsible citizenry all over the world. The book should be part of reference reading for most college graduates to create an awareness about the issues as they are impacted most by the food crisis.” Raj Vardhan Vice President, OLAM International, China “I had the opportunity to actively participate in a one day seminar of Professor Marcos Fava Neves in Saint Louis, USA, where the content of the book was presented and discussed. I am amazed about the knowledge the author has about the food industry.” G B Sundarajan Suguna Foods Limited, India “Marcos is a profound analyst of global food and agribusiness issues. He has a great vision, youth behavior and sagacity to understand complex environment and translate in a simple message.” Gustavo Grobocopatel CEO of Los Grobo, Argentina “Food used to be a day-to-day task to provide for it and it is very close to everybody's imagination. However, today's society is characterized by individuals who are regarded to be a food expert but it takes people like Dr. Marcos Fava Neves who not only explains today's food supply and puts food into a global perspective but also challenges tomorrows needs and requirements. All with an open mindset and in a stimulating and inviting style. I suggest you join and become a knowledgeable food entrepreneur as well.” Marc van Genuchten Commercial Director, Continental Juice/Cutrale, The Netherlands

Because the World Matters. New generations are championing responsibility for both the environment and those peoples who depend upon it in all new ways. Biblical Holism and Agriculture addresses the urgent need for constructing a holistic perspective, grounded in the Bible, to appraise the economic, social, ecological, environmental, and spiritual impact of globalization and the unprecedented impact of powerful agricultural technologies, and marketing systems. The holistic biblical perspectives within reference ancient Hebrew insights about responsible freedom for “keeping” the land by people created in the image of God as representatives commissioned to stewardship and justice.

Food and agricultural standards have recently risen to the top of both national and international agendas. Popular concerns about the power of the World Trade Organization focus on the intertwined relationships between environmental protection, labor and human rights, and the standards used to produce and supply our food and fiber globally. In the developing world, agricultural grades and standards are an important part of the reconfiguration of roles and responsibilities between various public and private actors in market reform. This original and informative collection of studies of agri-food standards in the modern economy addresses these and helps to define the scope of the emerging study of the politics of standards setting. Following an overview essay dealing with the multiple ways of thinking about, approaching and defining food and agricultural standards, eleven case studies offer a rich body of evidence that assesses the processes, dynamics and potential consequences of global agri-food standards. For all interested in the strategic use of food and agricultural standards – from those in national and international governmental agencies, researchers and others in the academic and private sector to those in the private business sector – this volume offers a broader perspective on and will serve as an important resource.

This title was first published in 2001. An interdisciplinary team of leading European scholars bring together case studies from Western and Eastern Europe to illustrate and critically analyze the shifting relationships of agricultural, environmental and food policy in Europe. In the most comprehensive book of its kind it examines the critical changes, both in agricultural, environmental and food politics and the way these domains have been investigated by European social scientists. The book evaluates specific changes, focussing in particular on agricultural restructuring (in the face of globalization, Europeanization and the collapse of the Soviet model of agricultural organization), agriculture-environmental relations and consumer preferences. Beginning by examining the degree to which Europe offers a unique and identifiable rural experience, the book includes a critical re-examination of the process of agricultural transformation. In the light of contemporary events and the over-seductive and essentially mythical notion of post-productivism.
