As we look to address the challenges of feeding a world of over 9 billion people in 2050, it will be necessary to raise agricultural productivity. This will need to take place while mitigating environmental constraints, such as shrinking availability of water and arable land. One of the key factors in global food security is access to and efficient use of inputs and resources.
