A Multi-Billion-Dollar Opportunity: Repurposing Agricultural Support to Transform Food Systems
This report, launched by the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), the UN Development Programme (UNDP) and the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) finds that 87% of current support to agricultural producers, approximately USD 540 billion per year, include measures that are often inefficient, inequitable, distort food prices, hurt people’s health, and degrade the environment. This report provides evidence on the benefits of repurposing negative agricultural support rather than eliminating it altogether.
