Climate-resilient crops are vital for smallholder farmers facing a warming world. This CIMMYT study reveals how ancient wheat varieties can boost heat/drought tolerance, disease resistance, and yields in modern wheat strains. devex.com/news/how-ancie…

Chef Juls is cooking up an agrifood revolution! By championing often-overlooked crops like millet, fonio, and cowpea, she is not only serving up delicious food, but also helping create a more sustainable and nutritious food system. forbes.com/sites/daphneew…

This year’s Goalkeepers report underscores the urgent need for investments that empower smallholder farmers to adapt to climate change and grow more nutritious foods. reuters.com/business/healt…

My thoughts are with those affected by flooding across West and Central Africa. Over 55m were already struggling with hunger, and floods have created an even worse food crisis. Aid is urgently needed alongside long-term investments in climate adaptation. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

It was fantastic speaking with Carlos Mureithi about the power of digital innovation in empowering smallholder farmers to grow more food while increasing their climate resilience. theguardian.com/world/2024/sep…

The Nigerian floods remind us that climate adaptation is crucial for safeguarding livelihoods in the face of climate change. We must prioritize flood-resistant infrastructure and climate-smart agriculture to empower farmers to prepare for climate shocks. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Congratulations, Agnes M. Kalibata! We are honored to continue working alongside you and your team.

My home country of Zimbabwe was also affected by this emerging crisis. Appreciate the World Food Programme for supporting these small-scale farming communities and calling attention to more climate-resilient food systems to prevent future catastrophes. bit.ly/3YCW4tx

A new report by Global Commission on the Economics of Water warns that climate change and water mismanagement could threaten over 50% of global food production by 2050. The time is now to build climate-resilient food systems for all. bit.ly/4ho0axg

This will surely be a can’t miss experience at #COP29 this year. I look forward to tuning into CGIAR and Food and Agriculture Organization’s Pavilion from afar this year!

“The rise of a thriving agriculture industry brings the promise of a better life.” I couldn’t agree more, Ajay Banga & World Bank. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I had the chance to share the latest advancements in weather forecasting for smallholder farmers and reflect on what’s at stake for climate finance in the lead up to #COP30 with Science Africa. Thank you, Daniel Otunge for a riveting discussion. bit.ly/4ffu6t9

#WorldSoilDay may be over, but the need for healthy soil continues - everyday. Smallholder farmers rely on healthy soil to grow climate-resilient crops. Meet four farmers who are doing just that.

Today, 10% of the earth's land area suffers from excessive salinity. According to Food and Agriculture Organization’s new report, this could lead to crop yield losses of up to 70%. Sustainable #soilhealth means sustainable #foodsystems for all. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Great to see these stories. Plant researchers like Dora are Heroes in the Field! CABI

Ready to kick off 2025 by joining the AUC CAADP Summit in Kampala this week. See you there!

It was great to attend #CAADPKampala25 last week. I feel hopeful for a positive shift towards #AgriculturalTransformation, opening the door for us to improve productivity, reduce agriculture’s contributions to climate change & address chronic hunger, malnutrition, and poverty.

Congratulations, Alice Ruhweza! I couldn’t be more excited for the future of AGRA - Sustainably Growing Africa’s Food Systems. and to partner with you along the way!

Wonderful work from Dr. Clare Mukankusi!

Great insights from Ibrahim Mayaki of the African Union on the origins of #CAADP and how African countries can make their agricultural transformations more #nutrition sensitive.
