Our goal is to provide the scientific basis for development investments and policies that promote more productive, profitable agriculture, and healthier diets at no environmental cost. Low-income, smallholder farmers face significant challenges across sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). High population growth is coinciding with migration to the cities as younger populations seek out higher income-earning opportunities. Inadequate infrastructure and few markets for agricultural production in rural areas, for example, are leading to stagnated opportunities for smallholders.

sustainable development
There is growing evidence that investing in developing countries’ agricultural sector is among the most efficient ways to reduce poverty and hunger. Agricultural investments can generate a wide range of developmental benefits, but these benefits cannot be expected to arise automatically and some forms of large-scale investment carry risks for host countries. Although there has been much debate about the potential benefits and risks of international investment, there is a lack of systematic evidence on the actual impacts on the host country and their determinants.

　この「世界食料農業白書2010-2011年報告」は“農業における女性：開発に向けたジェンダーギャップの解消”を主題としている。農業部門は多くの開発途上国で伸び悩んでおり、その主な原因の１つは、女性たちが自らの生産性を高めるために必要な資源と機会を平等に手に入れることができないでいることにある。本報告は、ミレニアム開発目標のジェンダー平等（MDG ３）と貧困・食料安全保障（MDG １）は互いに補強し合うものであることをはっきりと確認している。われわれはジェンダー平等を促進し、農業に携わる女性たちが飢餓と極度の貧困に立ち向かう闘いに持続的に勝利するための能力を与えなければならない。私は、MDG ３を達成することがMDG １を達成する助けになりうると固く信じている。

land ownership
Most of the world’s poor work in the “informal economy” – outside of recognized and enforceable rules. Thus, even though most have assets of some kind, they have no way to document their possessions because they lack formal access to legally recognized tools such as deeds, contracts and permits.
