Over 130 world leaders from 31 countries, representing farming, policy, agrifood business, research and civil society met in Beijing to assess how modernization of the food system can include and benefit small-scale farmers. Representatives from the public sector, the private sector, farmer’s organizations, academia, civil society and the media shared evidence to develop ideas for action. Providing insights to the challenges facing small-scale producers in restructured domestic and regional markets, based on evidence rather than anecdote, is a big step towards policies that can anticipate rather than run behind change. This report covers conference presenters and topics of discussion
