Supply drivers
• Climate change and variability
• Water and land scarcity
• Competition with biofuels
• Investment in agricultural research
• Science and technology policy
– Discovery, development, delivery
– Intellectual property rights, regulatory systems, extension http://fbae.org/2009/FBAE/website/

Supply-side Drivers of Agricultural Growth and Food Security
www.ifpri.org
Whither Oil Prices / Biofuel Expansion?
Oil prices are highly correlated to food prices
Rising oil prices make biofuels more profitable
Global biofuel production projected to almost double from 2009-11 to 2021
Cereal use for biofuels to rise by 7% annually—compared to 1.5% for food and feed

Challenges for Water Policy
Increasing costs of developing new water and delivering developed water; need for efficient use of developed water
Wasteful use of already developed supplies encouraged by subsidies and distorted incentives that influence water use
Depletion of groundwater, water pollution, declining water quality, and degradation of water-related ecosystems
Climate change, extreme weather and variable energy prices
Future role of hydropower and multipurpose dams

Bioeconomy Scenario Description
Annual productivity growth increases by average across crops of 0.23 percentage points and 0.20 percentage points for livestock
Water use efficiency - assumed to improve in each sector:
• Domestic sector: average global efficiency improvement = 45% in 2050 compared to BAU
• Industrial sector: average global efficiency increase = 43% by 2050 compared to BAU
• Smaller efficiency gains for irrigation sector
– Average global efficiency gains = 15% in 2050 compared to BAU
Bioeconomy Scenario Description Efficiency gains for industrial and residential water use
taken from WaterGAP model (Ozkaynak et al. 2012); irrigation sector by IFPRI
Underlying assumptions of water use efficiency gains• Efficiency measures in industry and residential water use and
climate policies lead to recycling and reduced demand for thermal cooling in power generation as fossil-fuel-powered plants are more rapidly replaced by renewable energy sources
• For agriculture, basin water use efficiency gains are based on more efficient transpiration and reduced water losses
– drought resistant varieties and other advances in research and biotechnology
– reduced non-beneficial ET
– reduced losses to water sinks (e.g. due to water-conserving irrigation and crop management technologies and reduced evaporative losses during conveyance)
Bioeconomy Scenario Description
Impact of faster technological change - commercial scale second generation biofuels start 5 years earlier than Business As Usual (BAU) (2025 rather than 2030); reducing demand for first generation feedstocks
GDP growth increased relative to BAU to reflect increased productivity in agricultural and water sectors
CGE model GTEM (Ahammad and Mi 2005) used iteratively with IMPACT to generate multiplier effects from agricultural and water sector productivity growth to GDP growth
Globally, GDP growth increases from 3.2% per year under BAU to 3.6% per year under Bioeconomy Scenario

www.ifpri.org
2. Promote Complementary Policies and Investments
Invest in rural infrastructure and irrigation
Increase access to high-value supply chains and markets e.g. fruits, vegetables, and milk
Regulatory reform: Reduce hurdles to approval and release of new cultivars and technologies
• Remove impediments (e.g. restrictive “notified” crop lists, excessive testing and certification requirements, foreign investment barriers, ad hoc biosafety decision-making)
Extension of farming systems: minimum tillage, integrated soil fertility management, integrated pest management, precision agriculture
www.ifpri.org
Support open trading regimes to share climate risk
Use market-based approaches to manage water and environmental services combined with secure property rights
Reduce subsidies that distort production decisions and encourage water use beyond economically appropriate levels
• Fertilizer, energy, water subsidies
• Savings invested in activities that boost farm output and income
3. Reform Economic Policies
www.ifpri.org
4. Implement New Water Policies
Establishment of secure water rights
Design and implementation of economic incentives for efficient use of agricultural water
Policy reform to deal with water quality and environmental problems
Enhance water security through on-farm crop management and crop breeding for water productivity
Develop energy- and GHG-conserving water policies
Design and implementation of long term investment strategies for irrigation, hydropower, and water supply and sanitation
