Building the future of food security, together.

ABOUT US

Harnessing AI to strengthen global food systems.

The AI Collaborative: Food Security brings together leading organizations working across humanitarian response, research, technology, and agriculture to strengthen global food security.

Together, members are developing AI-powered solutions that help predict food crises earlier, accelerate climate-resilient crop innovation, and equip farmers with better tools and knowledge.

Beyond individual projects, the Collaborative creates a shared space for research, data-sharing, and collective learning: connecting organizations that might otherwise work in isolation to build stronger, more resilient food systems.

OUR FOCUS

Three pillars. One shared mission.

Hunger Forecasting

Predict food crises earlier to enable more effective preparation, response, and mitigation.

Crop Breeding

Create resilient, nutrient-rich crops more quickly and affordably.

Farmer Advisory

Help smallholder farmers produce more food at a lower cost through access to AI-powered insights.

Current Projects

Improving hunger forecasting models and reducing breeding cycles

CGIAR

CGIAR is using AI and data-driven solutions to improve food security forecasting, accelerate crop breeding, and strengthen data management across its global research system.

Improving smallholder farmers' access to agricultural information and markets

Digital Green

Digital Green's AI assistant, FarmerChat, provides millions of smallholder farmers with localized agricultural advice, helping improve productivity, resilience, and incomes.

Why it matters

Turning potential into impact

30 → 90-day forecasts

AI can extend hunger forecasts by two months, giving responders more time to prevent crises.

Source: WFP

8–12 → 2–7-year cycles

AI can shorten breeding cycles, making disease-resistant, climate-resilient crops available sooner.

Sources: PitchGrade; The AgriBiz (2026)

15–20% higher yields

AI can improve smallholder farmers’ access to timely, localized advice, which significantly boosts their yields.
