IFPRI Report – "Food Policy in 2012: Walk the Talk"

Article Type: Features From: Management of Environmental Quality: An International Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4.

The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) has published its 2012 Food policy report which examines the major food policy issues, developments, and decisions of 2012. By putting into perspective the year's food policy successes and disappointments, the report suggests how to move forward those policies that improve the food situation for the poor.

Among the questions explored are: how has sustainable development evolved and is a green economy far behind? How can agriculture offer meaningful jobs to the growing number of young people in Africa? What directions are US and EU agricultural policies taking, and how do they diverge?
