The complexities involved in projecting food supply and demand over the longer term have raised interest in closer comparison of different projection exercises; thus AgMIP (acknowledge USDA support).
More people means there will be increased aggregate demand. But the story is complicated by changing consumption patterns. Economic development leads to increasing demand for animal products, fruits and vegetables, and oils and sugars, while per capita demand for cereals levels off globally.
Increasing calorie consumption across the board. Good for decreasing hunger and food insecurity. Large increases in vegetable oils and sugar will make the prevalence of obesity higher.
Large increase in demand for poultry, and milk
Pork demand doesnât increase as much, as large population increases are in more Muslim regions (MENA, SSA, SAS)
Pig Numbers decline by 375 million while productivity increases significantly
Chicken Numbers (broilers and layers) increase 8.8 billion
Cow Numbers (meat and milk) increase around 260 million
Sheep-lamb-goats increase by 360 million
Increasing population will lead to increased aggregate demand for cereals in all regions. However, food demand in most regions is not increase, and much of the increase globally is driven by growing demand from the livestock sector.
The large increase in feed demand for cereals is matched by increasing feed demand for oilmeals, particularly soybean meal
Total agriculture sees an increase in total land increases by 16% in 2050 compared to 2010, or about 200 million addition ha of harvested area
Total agricultural productivity increases by 50%
Cereal supply is dominated by increasing productivity, whereas oilseeds see a larger role for extension, particularly palm fruit in Southeast Asia and LAC, threatening increasing deforestation.
Agriculture and LUC contributed about 8000 mt CO2 equivalent emissions in 2010
Changing diets for Animals can decrease carbon intensity of livestock production
New technologies and management practices like wet and dry for rice can decrease methane emissions from crop cultivation
Increased demand in perishables (F&V and animal products) may increase carbon intensity in value chains in the global food system
Climate change will offer asymmetric shocks across the different commodities and regions. Some regions may benefit from longer growing seasons, or increased precipitation while others will suffer from heat stress and declining precipitation. In general northern latitudes are projected to benefit from gradual climate change through 2050, whereas the tropics are projected to suffer. South Asia in particular may suffer from climate change.
Aggregations mask regional and commodity variation. For example, for cereals maize suffers from climate change globally with few exceptions, whereas what may benefit from climate change, particularly in northern latitudes such as in Europe and the Former Soviet Union.
Prices will adjust according to shifting production and consumption patterns. Climate change has the potential to significantly increase crop prices. For cereals it could more than double the increase in in prices observed from 2010 to 2050 caused by increasing population and economic development. This is particularly true for maize, where prices increase may be as much as 55 percent higher than without climate change.
Livestock is less effected by climate change. Livestock diets are flexible with significant opportunities for substitution allow the livestock to adapt to changing cereal and oilmeal supplies. Livestock and Fruits and vegetables are more sensitive to changes in income. Higher income growth spurs rapid increase in demand. Cereal demand is more stable, and is driven by indirect demand through increased demand for animal products
Asymmetric climate shocks will require increased movement of goods from areas that might benefit from climate change to areas that will likely suffer from climate change. Developed countries will continue to be cereal exporters, but climate change will diminish the productive capacity of several key cereal exporters like the US, and Australia. The decline in exports will need to be mitigated by increased exports in the Former Soviet Union and increasing self-sufficiency in East Asia.
Rice is traded at much smaller rates than other cereals. Most rice is consumed in the country where it is produced.
South Asia rice imports projected to increase significantly, with East Asia increasing exports to meet this demand
Climate change threatens to push several southern wheat producing regions into larger importers. Increased exports from Europe and FSU will be needed to meet this demand
Climate change projected to hit maize production in NAM heavily. EAP and LAC will need to pick up the slack, but they will be hard pressed to do so, which explains in part the higher maize price increases compared to other cereals
Similar to the asymmetric nature of climate change, different regions will be growing at different rates, which will also require goods to be moved around to reach demanding markets.
Vegetable oil and oil meal trade is not greatly effected by climate change, but will respond more to changing consumption patterns caused by different assumptions on economic development.
EAP is a major exporter of vegetable oils, but at the same time a major importer of oil meals. This is due to palm being the dominant vegetable oil in EAP, which leaves little oil meal by-product. The region exports palm oil and imports soybean meal from NAM and LAC
According to FAO there are 838 million people at risk of hunger in 2010. General economic development under SSP2 will increase purchasing power globally, with most regions projected to decrease the number of hungry. The only exception is MEN, where the share of the total population at risk is declining, but at a slower rate than the increase of the total population.
Climate change threatens to slow down progress towards achieving the SDG of 0 hunger.
Different economic development pathways have even larger effects on the prevalence of hunger, with SSP3 and SSP4 leading to major issues of food insecurity throughout the developing world with LAC, MEN, and SSA projected to see increasing hunger in SSP3. Slower economic growth like that projected in SSP3 or SSP4 combined with climate change could lead to a future where little progress on decreasing hunger is achieved.
Increasing consumption up to a point has many benefits, as undernutrition increases the likelihood of dying of disease. However, over-consumption increases the likelihood of many non-communicable diseases (i.e. diabetes, heart disease, stroke etc.). Increasing food prices therefore has positive and negative effects with respect to climate-related deaths. In developed countries it will potentially decrease over-consumption and lead to fewer deaths. However, for developing countries it will lead to a higher prevalence of under-consumption increasing the number of deaths.
Increasing consumption of fruits and vegetables is critical to decreasing the risk of many diseases. High F&V prices, decreases the consumption of F&V compared to SSP2 NoCC, which increases deaths.
