Food security impact of global equities: executive summary

This study describes methodologies that have been developed to assess the food security impact of agricultural technologies supplied by stock exchange companies on the basis of publicly available revenue data. The methods have been developed for fertiliser, improved seeds, cooling and packaging. Given the lack of information on key variables at present it is only possible to apply the method for fertiliser to all companies that sell the technology in their portfolio. For the other three technologies additional information is necessary that is not publicly available.
