"To ensure that no one is left behind and to improve production, nutrition, the environment, and quality of life" It is becoming more widely acknowledged that in order to improve productivity, nutrition, the environment, and everyone's quality of life, the world has to quicken and refocus its transformation toward more resilient, inclusive, efficient, and sustainable agrifood systems (AFS). Impactful science, technology, and innovation (STI) development, adaptation, and dissemination must receive more priority in AFS. Particularly in low- and middle-income nations, the current rates and trends of STI adoption are insufficient to support the necessary changes to the agrifood sector. Furthermore, there is not enough knowledge about the descriptive and evaluative evidence on present and emerging AFS STI to enable deliberate management of STI in order to achieve the many goals of future AFS, including efficiency, inclusivity, resilience, and sustainability.
