The plan aims to make this sector highly productive, climate resilient, and socially responsive, ensuring food security and better nutrition. Green technology and digitization will be pivotal across various industries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Agriculture, which contributed 10.9 percent to Mongolia's GDP in 2021, with animal husbandry making up 84.5 percent of this, remains crucial for economic and social development. The sector employs about 30 percent of the workforce and significantly influences export earnings. Despite progress, social inclusion challenges persist, exacerbated by COVID-19 and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, which affects trade and import dependencies. The President of Mongolia has prioritized national food security, urging increased domestic production and reduced import reliance. -

Food systems and agriculture are at a crossroads and a profound transformation is needed at all scales, not only to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2) to “end hunger and all forms of malnutrition” by 2030 but also to address Agenda 2030 in its entirety, including human and environmental health, climate change, equity and social stability. Current trends, such as the new increase, since 2014, in the number of undernourished people and the alarming rate of all forms of malnutrition in all countries, and related tensions will be exacerbated if we fail to design and implement, in a very near future, food systems that ensure food security and nutrition while addressing all sustainability challenges. Agroecological and other innovative approaches in agriculture are increasingly praised for their potential contribution to reach these crucial goals. This report adopts a dynamic perspective, centred on the key concepts of transition and transformation. Ultimately, this rich and comprehensive report aims to fuel an exciting policy convergence process and help remove the lock-ins by developing a common understanding of these matters, so that concrete transition pathways can be implemented at all relevant scales, from farm, community and landscape to national, regional and global levels.
