IFPRI will continue to study the policies and institutions needed to manage the globalization of the food and agriculture system in a pro-poor fashion. This work will emphasize global agricultural trade negotiations, linkages between domestic policies and globalization, the impact of developed-country policies on developing-country food security, and pro-poor policies along the entire food chain, given the growing importance of consumers and processing and retail industries as food system drivers. Economy-wide trade and investment analysis will be combined with trade policy research focused on developing countries' strategic decision problems.
