Abstract

Over the past four decades, IFPRI Japanese Researchers (IFPRI-JR) significantly contributed to the knowledge advancement for various agrifood system issues in ways that are central to IFRRI’s mandates and complementary to the whole CGIAR system. This paper summarizes IFPRI-JR’s key knowledge work, its evolution over time, and its collective contributions. In earlier years especially up to the 2000s, various policy and market analysis tools were applied to agricultural policy reforms and price policies in Japan and elsewhere. More recently, to respond to the food crisis in 2007-08, IFPRI-JR’s research contributed to building empirical evidence on agrifood system policy issues in developing countries, including identification of key market failures and the appropriate role of the public sector in public goods provision in the presence of externalities and economies of scale. Over time the analytical scope expanded to institutional issues on resource management and markets, human capital formation, gender issues, agrifood system transformation, food and nutrition security. Finally, promising Japanese technologies and know-how were (i) identified for sustainable agrifood system development, and (ii) transferred to developing countries in the field of global nutrition security and their effectiveness shown. Collectively, IFPRI-JR have a long track record of addressing emerging as well as long-term structural issues, in both Japan and the world at large. Discipline: Social Science Additional key words: agrifood systems, policies, institutions, human capital, Japanese technologies and knowhow

农业、经济和人类发展:日本和国际粮食政策研究所的联合研究贡献

在过去的四十年中，IFPRI日本研究人员以IFRRI任务的核心和整个CGIAR系统的补充方式，为各种农业食品系统问题的知识进步做出了重大贡献。本文总结了IFPRI-JR的主要知识工作、其随时间的演变及其集体贡献。在早些年，特别是在2000年代之前，日本和其他地方的农业政策改革和价格政策应用了各种政策和市场分析工具。最近，为了应对2007-08年的粮食危机，IFPRI-JR的研究为建立发展中国家农业粮食系统政策问题的经验证据做出了贡献，包括确定关键的市场失灵，以及在存在外部性和规模经济的情况下公共部门在公共产品供应中的适当作用。随着时间的推移，分析范围扩大到资源管理和市场、人力资本形成、性别问题、农业粮食系统转型、粮食和营养安全等体制问题。最后，(i)确定了可持续农业粮食系统发展的有前途的日本技术和专门知识，(ii)在全球营养安全领域转让给发展中国家，并显示了其有效性。总的来说，IFPRI-JR在解决日本和世界各地的新兴和长期结构性问题方面有着长期的记录。其他关键词:农业食品系统、政策、制度、人力资本、日本技术和专门知识
