2 The Global Challenges in Agri-Food A Growing Human Population Finite Resources Environmental Degradation Economic and Environmental Sustainability of Farming Systems - within the Context of Globalised Markets Regional Self-sufficiency in Food Production The challenges facing agriculture today are unlike anything we have experienced before, and they require revolutionary approaches to solving food production and sustainability problems (Foley et al. 2011: Solutions for a cultivated planet Nature 478, ) 2
3 A New Model Sustainably-Competitive Agriculture Customised to regional strengths (Purvis et al. 2012) Design Criteria: Profitable at farm level Produce market-required goods Meet animal health & welfare needs Environmentally sustainable Can cope with climate change Energy efficient Facilitate both a technical and value-added marketing advantage with demonstrable benefits from multiple (safety, quality, environmental & animal health) perspectives 3
4 Sustainably-Competitive Agriculture: The Conceptual Model Food for Health Food Safety Animal Health, Welfare Environment & Climate Change Food Quality Animal Genetics Requires Integration of Expertise & Knowledge in: Farming, Food & Environment Animal Nutrition Knowledge Agriculture Farm Profitability Competitiveness Sustainability 4
5 Twin-Track Requirements in Farming: Innovation in Agri-Food Systems Efficiency in Production Environmental Sustainability Sustainably-Competitive. Models Future food production systems must achieve: Increased Farm Productivity + Adherence to Environmental Standards (After Hanrahan & Donnellan, 2012) 5
6 Sustainably-Competitive Agriculture: An Agronomic Model Provides a framework for strategic development greenhouse gas N 2 O emissions NH 3 CH 4 Similar models can be created for other production systems through integration of knowledge wider biodiversity CO 2 Pasture Function Rumen Function animal health/ performance Identifies the gaps in existing knowledge as key system epicentres soil quality efficiency of nutrient uptake loss of nutrients to ground water 6
7 Framework for the Mobilisation of Knowledge in System Development Knowledge Generation Creation of Sustainably-Competitive Models (integration of knowledge & identification of priority knowledge gaps) Systems-Based Programme Development (regional customisation & demonstration of benefits ) Knowledge Mobilisation Advisory Services Vocational Education Higher Education Stakeholders Forum Producers Processors Marketing Retailers Consumers Agencies 7
