In the southern hemisphere, agricultural development, food and nutritional security are crucial issues that shape territories along with the lives of millions of people, from producers to consumers.
In the face of demographic, geo-economic and climate challenges, it is essential to consolidate sustainable food systems.
Solutions are being tested around the world to sustainably increase productivity and living conditions for producers. But investment in research, entrepreneurship and public action are insufficient.
The FARM Foundation, with its unique position at the crossroads of research, corporate strategy and public policy, believes that bringing these worlds together is essential.
By launching this Prize, the Foundation intends to reward researchers who are committed to this approach in relation to its priority action themes.
The Prize will be awarded to researcher(s) whose work has been applied in the field with stakeholders such as companies, agricultural organizations, NGOs, or has supported public policies in developing countries.
Candidates will be expected to illustrate in practical terms their contribution – based on their research – to the implementation of actions in the field and/or to decision-making among public and private players.
