The marked disparity between living standards in rapidly growing urban centres and rural agricultural areas remains a challenge for sustained economic growth in many developing countries. Inclusive and environmentally sustainable agriculture-driven economic growth can meaningfully improve livelihoods of smallholder farmers and their families in the rural areas. This include investments in climate-smart production, robust inclusive value chains and demand-oriented private sector development in agriculture towards rural transformation and poverty reduction.
