Main findings

1. With regards to the state of food and nutrition, it was observed that amidst apparent plenty, global hunger is increasing, there is wide spread stunting, food production systems are putting biodiversity at greatest threat and by 2050 there will be more 2 billion people that need to be fed amidst increasing constraints in the food systems. Addressing these challenges requires strong political commitment from across the countries and political divide. 2. Transforming Africa’s food systems to promote well-being across all sectors from production to consumption is an important imperative that... Read more needs to be undertaken. In order to realise this, there is need to: (i) harness Africa’s strengths including vibrant cultures, agro and natural biodiversity, youth, growing markets, cooperative, society-driven norms; (ii) harness technological advances to overcome lack of relevant technologies and the lack of economies of size, (iii) build capacity and work together with human capital development for research and innovation being central focus for sustained growth; (iv) exploit the technological advances to aggregate outputs, improve market linkages and make the information rapidly available at scale. 3. Food systems within Eastern and Southern Africa have multiple drivers across the value chain. It is generally sub-divided into two realms; (i) Commercial food system…with formal supply chains e.g. maize has production, distribution with even existing food reserves in some countries. This serves the urban markets, meets the requisite standards and defines the way food is to be delivered; and (ii) the Subsistence food system that is a critical and important for the rural populations upon which they highly depend on. However, the region is under immense strain from climate variabilities and change including droughts and floods, invasive species, limited technology use leading to a huge yield gap, policy constraints among others. 4. Market access for new entrants into farming remains a vital ingredient that will unlock the sustainability of agricultural enterprises in Africa. Within the context of Southern Africa, the agricultural land reform programme focuses partly on this but it requires to be expanded and strengthened. Further, access to financing; for infrastructure, inputs are critical to enable enterprises to become sustainable. Beyond government, private sector needs to take action to bring financial and allied services closer in an affordable manner. 5. Universities and higher education institutions have a critical role to play in food systems transformation. They are the engines for technologies and innovations generations including; crop varieties, vaccines, diagnostic tools for managing risks from biosecurity and climate change. Universities need to be brought to the center of the food systems this enable them play this critical role and help in the delivery of nutritious and safe food, improved financial sustainability of farm enterprises, greater engagement with communities, engagement with policy makers and change their culture of doing business by for example making universities easily accessible and open to the smallholder farmers and communities. 6. African youth are currently one of the missing link in the agricultural sector and their active role in the food systems is limited. In order to attract, retain and meaningfully engage the youth, there is need to appreciate a large number of opportunities for youth exist beyond primary production and these could be more exciting avenues for their full participation. Further youth as new entrants in agriculture are innovative and could provide new models and tools for transforming the science and technology of agriculture through the research and this could offer immense opportunities with clear returns on investment. As youth are more committed to enterprises that provide clear and often immediate returns, it would be good to get youth interested in high value commodity production that often does not require so much labour and less land enterprises. 7. Fostering inclusivity within the food systems is paramount for sustainable livelihoods. This is particularly more important considering that there has been a move towards oligopoly mainly in well performing enterprises this has tended to create exclusion of the less fortunate stakeholders especially the smallholder farmers. Generating inclusive outcomes through integrated value chains requires; (i) strengthening value chain links; (ii) building partnerships that are equitable and fair and transparent; (iii) enable institutional arrangements to work including those that lower the risks for smallholder farmers such as contracting farming; (iv) shift from production oriented agricultural advisory services to market oriented services; and (v) utilise ecosystem approach that enables greater interaction of actors within and among themselves.

Desconocimiento sobre el potencial que tienen los países, territorios y cadenas para aumentar la eficiencia y la sostenibilidad en la producción y en la valorización (industrialización) de la biomasa y biodiversidad, a través de las nuevas tecnologías e innovaciones de la bioeconomía. 3. Poco conocimiento sobre nuevas tecnologías e innovaciones de la bioeconomía que permiten incrementar la eficiencia y sostenibilidad en producción y aprovechamiento de la biomasa (primaria y residual) y la biodiversidad 4. Poco desarrollo de mercados locales de: a) bioproductos que permiten incrementar la sostenibilidad y/o la agregación de valor de la biomasa y la biodiversidad; b) tecnologías e innovaciones de la bioeconomía que fomentan la eficiencia y sostenibilidad en la producción e industrialización de la biomasa y biodiversidad. 5. Pocos – o nulos – instrumentos financieros y fiscales que incentiven a los agentes del sistema alimentario a ser más eficientes y sostenibles en la producción e industrialización de la biomasa y/o biodiversidad. 6. Pocos servicios de apoyo que promuevan la adopción de tecnologías e innovaciones de la bioeconomía que permitirían aumentar la eficiencia y la sostenibilidad en la producción e industrialización de la biomasa y la biodiversidad. 7. Bajas capacidades – organizativas, empresariales, tecnológicas, etc. – en los actores de las cadenas agrícolas (sobre todo los productores) y en los territorios rurales, lo que les impide aprovechar las potencialidades de transformación que les ofrece la bioeconomía. 8. Poca articulación y vinculación entre: a) la investigación generada por los institutos públicos y la academia con las necesidades de la empresa privada; b) la investigación que realiza la gran empresa con necesidades y potencial de las pequeñas empresas. 9. Los investigadores y/o bioemprendedores cuentan con muy poca infraestructura y equipamiento para pilotaje y escalamiento, así como bajos ecosistemas nacionales y territoriales para la creación, desarrollo y maduración de sus proyectos e iniciativas. 10. Pocos esquemas de financiamiento e inversión para proyectos de la bioeconomía que promuevan una mayor eficiencia y sostenibilidad en la producción y/o industrialización de la biomasa y biodiversidad (por ejemplo, fondos perdidos -no reembolsables-, capital de riesgo y capital semilla). 11. Los inversionistas y tomadores de decisión de entes financieros desconocen el potencial de la bioeconomía, y de los negocios que permitirían incrementar la eficiencia y sostenibilidad de la producción e industrialización de la biomasa. 12. Inexistencia de redes productivas, industriales y comerciales en los territorios rurales para operativizar (llevar a terreno) los negocios de la bioeconomía que permitirían incrementar la eficiencia y la sostenibilidad de la producción e industrialización de la biomasa.
