GRK 1666:  Transformation of Global Agri-Food Systems: Trends, Driving Forces and Implications for Developing Countries

• Subject Area: Agriculture, Forestry and Veterinary Medicine
• Term: from 2011 to 2020
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 162899918

• Final Report Year: 2020

Final Report Abstract

Global agri-food systems are undergoing a rapid transformation towards higher-value products, new standards, and a higher degree of international and vertical integration. This transformation is largely driven by changing consumer preferences and new opportunities for the agribusiness sector arising from globalization. The ramifications for industry structure, competitiveness, and social welfare are not yet sufficiently understood. Likewise, there are knowledge gaps for public and private sector policymaking to enhance efficiency and equity outcomes, also with a view to smallholder farmers and other poor households in developing countries. The overall objective of the GlobalFood RTG was to analyze trends, driving forces, and implications of the agri-food system transformation and train future generations of first-class researchers and policymakers in relevant fields. The interdisciplinary research and training program was carried out in cooperation with the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) – an international research and policy think tank. Some of the studies were based on modeling with secondary data. In addition, the doctoral and postdoctoral researchers collected extensive primary data through household and industry surveys as well as laboratory and field experiments in developed and developing countries. During the 9-year funding period, important research results were developed on the restructuring of global food supply chains and the broader implications for farmers, consumers, and other supply chain actors, including farm workers, traders, food processing companies, and the retail sector. Effects of the agri-food system transformation on nutrition, health, and gender equity were also analyzed. RTG research results have achieved wide international visibility. GlobalFood junior researchers produced more than 130 peer-reviewed journal articles, many published in the top field journals of agricultural economics, development economics, and food security, a few also in interdisciplinary high impact factor journals such as Nature Sustainability and PNAS. RTG results on the effects of the supermarket revolution on people’s diets and nutrition, the implications of voluntary food standards on social equity, and nutrition-sensitive agriculture in developing countries were also featured in invited paper sessions of large conferences and in flagship publications of international organizations, including the Global Nutrition Report 2020 and the Global Panel’s Foresight Report on “Future Food Systems”. In three-year intervals, the RTG also organized its own international conference – the GlobalFood Symposium – which regularly attracted more than 200 scholars to Göttingen from all over the world. The RTG was also successful in terms of training junior researchers and fostering team diversity. Fifty-seven doctoral researchers completed their PhD degree in GlobalFood (as of November 2020; a few others are about to complete), 32 of which were female. RTG junior researchers came from 27 different countries, including many from Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Twenty-one of the junior researchers had children, often more than one. The RTG supported work-family compatibility through various measures tailored to individual needs. Junior researchers also benefited a lot from opportunities to network internationally and present their results at international conferences. So far, GlobalFood junior researchers made 229 academic conference presentations based on their RTG research results. Many junior researchers took up academic positions after leaving the RTG; others got attractive jobs in national and international development organizations, including several CGIAR Centers. Finally, the GlobalFood RTG also had lasting structural effects at the University of Göttingen. It contributed to strengthening the cooperation between the Faculties of Agriculture and Economics and the partnerships with IFPRI and other international partners. The RTG also helped to foster doctoral training within structured PhD programs and to reduce the average time to thesis submission. GlobalFood was an important factor in making Göttingen one of the leading places for agricultural economics and food systems-related research and training in Europe.
