Global hunger remains one of the world’s greatest challenges — with more than 720 million people affected in 2024 alone.
In this episode of AgriView, Wandile explores how the 2025 G20 Summit in Johannesburg placed food security at the heart of its agenda. From boosting agricultural productivity through technology and improved seed cultivars, to supporting farmers in adapting to climate change, he unpacks why innovation in agriculture must become central to solving hunger — particularly across Africa, Asia and Latin America.
We also zoom in on the critical role of global trade in securing food access. Wandile highlights how South Africa leveraged the G20 platform to strengthen key agricultural partnerships — including bilateral engagements with the EU, Australia and Vietnam — aimed at enhancing market access, improving biosecurity, and unlocking future free-trade opportunities.
