CIMMYT

Dr. Thomas Lumpkin, the Director General of CIMMYT, presented on the MAIZE CRP and its relevance for Asia. CIMMYT aims to sustainably increase the productivity of maize and wheat systems to ensure global food security and reduce poverty. It has 160 researchers from 40 countries working in 19 offices worldwide. CIMMYT has developed a ten point action agenda to address challenges like climate change, water scarcity, and increasing food demand. The MAIZE CRP expects to increase productivity by 7% by 2020 and 33% by 2030, adding $2 billion and $8.8 billion in annual value respectively, while reaching millions of smallholder farmers.

CIMMYT Mission Statement To sustainably increase the productivity of maize and wheat systems to ensure global food security and reduce poverty.
CIMMYT Locations 160 researchers from 40 countries in 19 offices worldwide. Partners include universities, private companies, advanced research institutes, NGOs and farmer associations. $100+ million budget.

Bangladesh, Cambodia, and the Philippines included in list of top 10 countries most vulnerable to climate change. (Maplecroft, 2012)
Pakistan Flooding 1.3 million hectares of crops destroyed Worst flood in 80 years (2010) Repeated flooding in 2011 “Pakistan’s agricultural industry – a pillar of the economy – could take up to two years to start recovering” Asian Development Bank.
Projected Temperature Increases Up to 23% of South Asia’s maize crop could will be lost due to higher temperatures by 2050. Krechowicz, et. al., “Weeding Risk: Financial Impacts of Climate Change and Water Scarcity on Asia’ Food and Beverage Sector”, World Resources Institute, 2010.

Changing Diets Half of the world’s pork is eaten in China. Chicken and beef are becoming important.
Dependence on Maize Imports Indonesia imported 1.6 million tons in 2010. This year, Indonesia will import an estimated 3.2 million tons. At 16 million tons, Japan is the world’s largest importer of maize. China became a new importer of maize last year for the first time in 14 years. By 2015, China is expected to import 15 million metric tons of maize from the US alone.

CIMMYT’s Response to the Challenges and Opportunities Facing Maize
Ten Point Action Agenda for MAIZE “Strategic Initiatives” 1. Socioeconomics and policies for maize futures 2. Sustainable intensification and income opportunities for the poor 3. Smallholder precision agriculture 4. Stress tolerant maize for the poorest 5. Towards doubling maize productivity 6. Integrated postharvest management 7. Nutritious maize (with CRP4) 8. Seeds of Discovery – tackling the black box of genetic diversity 9. New tools and methods for NARS and SMEs 1-9. Strengthening local capacities
MAIZE CRP Target Areas
Expected Impact  Increased productivity of target populations by 7% in 2020 and 33% by 2030.  An added annual value of $2.0 billion by 2020 and $8.8 billion in 2030.  Reach 40 million smallholder farm family members by 2020 and 175 million by 2030.  Provide enough maize to meet the annual food demand of an additional – 135 million consumers in 2020 – 600 million by 2030.
Our Partners  SAGARPA - Mexico  KARI - Kenya, Syngenta Foundation  Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture  130 national agricultural research institutes  18 regional and international organizations  21 advanced agricultural research institutes  75 universities
Another xample: BISA Borlaug Institute for South Asia  General Objective: Develop state- of-the art research facilities to support maize and wheat research and development and capacity building.  Train partners in cutting-edge biotechnology and bioinformatics tools.  Train agronomists in conservation and precision agriculture.  Develop wheat varieties which increase yields up to 50%.  Initiate a Second Green Revolution.
