Smallholder farmers urgently need innovative solutions to face challenges in food security. This latest report is a collaboration between the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO) and the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB). The report maps 10 countries where smallholder farmers face challenges, focusing on six critical areas for food security:
- postharvest, reducing food loss and waste;
- water management and water saving technologies in face of climate change;
- sustainable pest control and crop management;
- e-commerce and market access;
- fintech; and
- green energy for farmers agribusiness operations.
By identifying and cataloguing climate-smart agricultural solutions, the project aims to improve both productivity and resilience, ensuring that the technologies are adaptable across diverse farming contexts.
