I would like to focus on just three.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The first challenge is sustainable growth and development. Our world needs to expand food production and raise producers\u2019 incomes. But we also need to curb greenhouse gas emissions for food systems, manage risks from climate change, create jobs (especially for youth), and protect the environment. This is a tall order. Thankfully, we have many evidence-based solutions already at hand. Recently, for example, we partnered with agribusinesses in Nigeria and the government of Japan to evaluate solar-powered cold storage units and fruit and vegetable delivery trucks. We found that this initiative led to better quality and cheaper produce for consumers, and a 33% return for farmers and traders.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The second challenge is nutrition<\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">.<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> Global poverty has fallen dramatically, but between 2 to 3 billion people still cannot afford or access a healthy diet. Policy is key here. It determines what foods are produced. How easily they are available in local markets and at what cost. And if households can afford and choose to eat them. Our nutrition work is vast. As a recent example, our researchers in Bangladesh found that the popular parboiled miniket rice has poor micronutrient content, especially for zinc. As a result, the government has introduced policies discouraging its production, transport, and distribution.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The last challenge is equity and inclusion. Global poverty and hunger are concentrated in low-income countries and amongst marginalized population groups, including migrants. Again, I return to policy. Policy choices will influence which countries and people are able to participate in and benefit from growth. For those who face barriers to participating, including gender-based ones, we must provide social safety nets. We evaluate these options. In Egypt, we found that cash transfers under the Takaful and Karama social protection program were effective, leading the program to be continued and expanded to 12 million beneficiaries in 2020.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The time to transform food systems is now. Governments cannot do this alone \u2014 they will require the close partnership of the private sector. Agribusinesses can digitize food systems and close the digital divide in agriculture. They can insure farmers against crises and create industrial corridors for food production and free trade of agricultural products. The private sector can allocate venture capital for innovation, provide equal access to financial services, and truly climate-proof food systems for the future. Not only will these actions provide vast economic returns for the private sector, but they will also ensure the health and well-being of people and planet. I remain hopeful for these prospects.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><a id=\"IICA\"><\/a>Lloyd Day, Deputy Director General\u202f<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\"><br \/>\n<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iica.int\/en\/about-us\/main#:~:text=The%20Inter%2DAmerican%20Institute%20for,development%20and%20rural%20well%2Dbeing.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture\u202f(IICA)<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_78210\" style=\"width: 319px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78210\" class=\"wp-image-78210 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lloyd-Day.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"309\" height=\"309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lloyd-Day.jpg 309w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lloyd-Day-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lloyd-Day-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lloyd-Day-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lloyd-Day-72x72.jpg 72w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lloyd-Day-85x85.jpg 85w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 309px) 100vw, 309px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-78210\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lloyd Day<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Many of the challenges of crop protection and agriculture are cyclical. The big changes coming are both with climate change as well as with feeding a growing population. I see agriculture becoming more front and center in geopolitical issues.

I&#8217;m working closely with many crop protection companies to embrace innovation and a forward-looking perspective when it comes to agriculture. We know what&#8217;s happened in the past, but we need to see how these new innovations and technologies are going to help us. We need to ensure that we have a regulatory regime, at least in our countries, and also in our trading partners, that will accept these new developments. I was recently at the World Trade organization, where the issue of sustainability, trade, and agriculture was at the forefront in the discussions. I heard talks on sustainability, and how regulations and trading policies might affect the ability of farmers to conduct trade and sell their goods overseas.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">There is an upcoming challenge to feed 2 billion more people in the next 25 years, while at the same time reacting to the challenges of climate change.

adoption and use of all kinds of biological products, not just in commercial agriculture but in many areas including home gardens, forestry, and even public health. To help encourage this, BPIA is working to promote adoption of the AAPFCO Model Bill and ensure implementation results in a clear path to market for biostimulants at the state level.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In 2025, BPIA also intends to create an outreach communication campaign to increase understanding of the value of biological products to a variety of audiences. One concern that BPIA has is that the United States Environmental Protection Agency is adequately funded by Congress so that the agency can continue to register new and innovative biological products. To address this concern, BPIA will focus much of its advocacy work on Capitol Hill on this issue.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><a id=\"CPDA\"><\/a>Terry Kippley, President<br \/>\n<\/span><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/cpda.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Council of Producers and Distributors of Agrotechnology (CPDA)<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_78216\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78216\" class=\"wp-image-78216 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-330x330.jpg 330w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-72x72.jpg 72w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-576x576.jpg 576w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-85x85.jpg 85w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/d6kq167ddwbdq.cloudfront.net\/farmchemint\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Terry-Kippley.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-78216\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Terry Kippley<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Right now, the U.S. agriculture industry is facing some significant headwinds.\u202fCommodity prices are down, inflation is up, and we have experienced our fair share of natural disasters.\u202fWithout a new farm bill, many growers will have a difficult time weathering this current downturn in the agricultural economy.\u202f Our members, however, help provide affordable choices in the marketplace in addition to the use of important tools like adjuvants that help stretch their crop protection dollar further along with providing a low-cost option for ESA mitigation and compliance.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Collaboration is the new currency in Washington D.C. and across the country.
