Latest updates
- [December 2021] Over 100 agri-food representatives in Indonesia have demonstrated understanding that - with nature on their ‘balance sheet’ - they are more likely to thrive in future scenarios. Two Agri-Business roundtables and six training sessions paved the way for agri-business to measure and manage not just their impacts on financial capital (ie. shareholders), but also their impacts and dependencies on natural capital and the society at large.
- [March 2021] Interim TEEBAgriFood findings show that nature positive food systems are not only good for the environment - they also ensure rural livelihoods. These findings include a 27% increase in agri-food outputs with the application of agroforestry practices. In addition to yield, TEEBAgriFood will analyze different policy intervention pathways for cocoa agroforestry, looking at some of the trade-offs and synergies by integrating the goal of crop yields with the goals of nutrition, human health, livelihoods and planetary health.
- [January 2020] Interim TEEBAgriFood findings contributed to the inclusion of agroforestry – for the first time - in Indonesia’s mid-term National Development Plan.
Scope of work
The Ministry of National Development Planning (BAPPENAS) requested science-based policy advice for food system policies that reward responsible stewardship of natural, human, social and produced capital. Expected outcomes include:
- Enable the inclusion of science-based agroforestry goals in the mid-term National Development plan
- Transpose the cacoa and agroforestry goals of the National Development Plan into regulations that internalize natural capital dimensions in its design. This includes national cross-sectoral regulations and subnational land-use planning policies in South Sulawesi.
