On Saturday, September 26, Secretary Hillary Clinton and U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon outlined a food security proposal to broaden support and reaffirm the key principles, outlined at the L'Aquila G8 Summit in July, which "take decisive action to free humankind from hunger and poverty through improving food security, nutrition, and sustainable agriculture".  We welcome this as it comes on the heels of our launch concerning closing the productivity gap and we look forward to working with the Administration as well as all others in the food security, agriculture and conservation arenas to double agriculture production by the year 2050 in a sustainable way.
