AGMIP

Stresses and Shocks can hugely undermine societal stability leading to civil unrest and migration. Understanding and anticipating stressors, tipping points, and interventions will make society more resilient to future food system shocks. AgMIP scientists are ana- lyzing recent changes in the global food system such as changing trade networks, food stocks, diseases, and diets; shifting probabilities of extreme climate events and how they could a ect multiple breadbasket regions;and, behaviors of governments, supply chains, private companies and other food system actors. AgMIP is developing real-time monitoring, probabilistic scenar- ios, and near-term forecasting of climate shocks to scale up integrated, multi-disciplinary, and action-oriented research in service to society... AgMIP research aims to substantially advance our understanding of model strengths, weaknesses, and uncertainty while also developing new approaches including data integration and transdisciplinary modeling..
