China Daily posted an article on this year’s Africa Green Revolution Forum that has identified investment, collaboration and inclusivity in agriculture as a post-pandemic priority to tackle hunger and grow the value of Africa’s agricultural sector. Kevin Chen (Chen Zhigang), China Program Leader and Senior Research Fellow pointed out that COVID-19 is one of many risks facing the agri-food sector. He said, “COVID-19 is an example of a single event cascading into multiple risks. This means when you have all those risks together, it’s going to have a compounded effect on everyone involved in agri-food.”
