We will collaborate more with your office @DALRRDgov_ZA

.@FANRPAN Board Chair @TheoDJager says no two farmers farm the same & so solutions the solution to the #climate challenge will not be a one size fits all!! #FANRPANatCO27 #COP27  #TogetherForImplementation

Join the community of global food organisations urging inclusion of food systems in a new mandate on Koronivia. It is absolutely critical!!

The world will not transform to more sustainable food systems by those who meeting by meeting preach new ideologies, but by those with their fingers in the soil, acre by acre

Towards Resilient, Sustainable, Transformed African Agriculture and Food Systems

[Food, Agric. & Nat. Res. Policy Analysis Network @FANRPAN]

There is no doubt that food production needs to increase substantially. But increasing production on its own will not guarantee that poor and vulnerable food producers and consumers have access to and can always afford sufficient and nutritious food.

I would like to congratulate, @FANRPAN, @comesa_lusaka, @upTuks and GRSB for convening this event and drawing closer attention to the challenge of building resilient, sustainable, transformed African Agriculture and Food Systems.

You might agree that the creation of sustainable food systems that achieve food security for our societies is a top-priority issue for us all, particularly amid the exacerbation of climate change as well as the resulting rise in temp. and water scarcity.

[Robynne Anderson @Robynne_A]

We will only tackle the challenge with our fingers in the soil, not in ideology or theories. @TheoDJager is so right! It takes actual #farming 🧑‍🌾

@ThembiMwams highlights that African solutions are needed for African agriculture. Local contexts are the key to becoming climate smart! #COP27 #climatetalk #SDGs

Irrigation is considered an important pathway towards enhanced food security

[Food, Agric. & Nat. Res. Policy Analysis Network @FANRPAN]

However, smallholder irrigation has largely failed to use the land and water sustainably and reduce poverty

[Food, Agric. & Nat. Res. Policy Analysis Network @FANRPAN]

#TISAProject interventions sought to transform small-scale irrigation schemes from dysfunctional to functional systems.

#FANRPANatCOP27 @UPTuks @comesa_lusaka @gatesfoundation @FutureAfricaUP #COP27

[Food, Agric. & Nat. Res. Policy Analysis Network @FANRPAN]

#TISAProject was undertaken in Mozambique, Tanzania and Zambia from which lessons drawn may be applied in other jurisdictions.

It is evident that Climate adaptation and resilience, food systems transformation can be achieved by offering appropriate technologies combined with a social change approach - Dr @njoenyoni
