A new report from the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) highlights considerable advancements in African agrifood systems over the last 20 years. The Impact, Learning and Foresight Report acknowledges improvements in areas crucial for food security across the continent. Despite this positive trend, AGRA emphasizes that substantial work remains to fully transform these systems. The report suggests ongoing efforts are necessary to build resilience and capacity within African agriculture. Further investment and strategic interventions are critical to overcome existing hurdles. While progress has been made, sustained commitment is needed to ensure long-term food security for Africa’s growing population. The report serves as both a recognition of achievements and a call to action for continued improvement.
