A clear roadmap to success

How refreshing to read a report not bogged down in idealogical dogma.

Too often forums about agricultural development and food security are captured by agendas. The old organic vs biotech debate is the obvious example. It long ago became boring and unhelpful.

The goal is the end of hunger, the elimination of needless human suffering, no more starving children. The roadmap to such an end must be clear of obstructive arguments about whose dogma is best.
