Increasing Agricultural Productivity to Triple Yields and Reduce Environmental Impact
By implementing existing technologies such as improved irrigation and fertilizer use, agricultural yields in certain countries could potentially triple. This would not only bring them on par with or above countries like India but also have significant environmental benefits by reducing the need for additional land use. The challenge lies in identifying the most effective technologies and ensuring their widespread adoption. Low hanging fruits include irrigation and subsidizing fertilizers. Investing in agriculture in these regions could yield strong economic returns, despite initial financial constraints. The untapped potential in this market, coupled with the need to meet growing food demands, makes it a promising opportunity.
