A presentation by Sébastien Treyer at the round table during session 1 – Agriculture and food: strategic challenges for the 21st century? – at the public forum “Agriculture in 3D: defence, diplomacy, development” organised by the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs and Club DEMETER.
« In order to feed 10 billion human beings by 2050, we will need to produce not only far more, but also far better. This is an immense challenge, yet the geostrategic importance of global agricultural and food issues is often poorly understood. However, agriculture and food are at the crossroads of numerous major challenges for this century: adaptation to climate change, the future of free trade, distress migration, escalating conflicts, gender inequalities, etc. »
