摘要

由于人口增长和气候变化,粮食需求不断增加,全球粮食安全(GFS)面临挑战。在最近的公共卫生、地缘政治和经济危机之前,国际贸易和全球化一直是全球粮食安全的基础。然而,农业食品部门的灵活性有限,需要较长的时间才能实现根本性/可持续的变革。高效的水资源管理是实现全球粮食供应链的关键因素之一,但区域/地方往往缺乏所需的知识和能力。我们建议将农业生态系统水资源优化管理中心作为长期解决方案。这些中心将成为促进研究、创新和技术转让的专业中心,提高利益相关者(农民、推广人员和政府官员、学者、学生、决策者和其他专业人员)的知识水平和水资源管理能力。这些中心将作为研究/教育/技术示范实体,根据特定国家/地区的具体情况开展工作,旨在通过高空间分辨率的外联活动,实现最重要和最相关的目标和成果。最后,这些中心将改善农民的生计,促进农业环境资源的可持续和有效利用,提高生 产力和粮食质量,最终为全球粮食安全提供支持。

Centers for optimizing water management in agroecosystems & global food security
Global food security (GFS) is challenged by increasing food demand due to population growth and climate change. International trade and globalization have underpinned GFS until the most recent public health, geopolitical and economic crises, when virtually overnight, the focus of governments has shifted towards domestically and locally produced foods. However, the agri-food sector has limited flexibility, and relatively long periods are needed for fundamental/sustainable changes. One of the crucial factors enabling GFS is the efficient water management, but the required knowledge and capabilities are often lacking regionally/locally. We propose the Centers for Optimizing Water Management in Agroecosystems as a long-term solution. The Centers would be the specialized hubs for promotion of research, innovation and technology transfer, raising the knowledge of stakeholders (farmers, extension and government officials, scholars, students, policymakers and other professionals) and their capacities in water management. These Centers would operate as research/education/technology demonstration entities tailored to the specifics of a particular country/region, aiming to address the most important and pertinent goals and outcomes with a high-spatial-resolution outreach. Finally, the Centers will improve farmers’ livelihoods, contribute to sustainable and efficient use of agro-environmental resources, and increase productivity and food quality, ultimately supporting GFS.
