Olam Prize for Innovation in Food Security is now available for applicants all over the world. Participate with your scientific research that can deliver transformational impacts within global agriculture and win a USD$75,000 grant to support development and implementation.

About the Prize:-

  • Increasing sustainable food production is crucial to nourish the more than 820 million people who regularly go to bed hungry and the additional 2 billion people the world will have by 2050. 

  • The Olam Prize for Innovation in Food Security aims to support scientific research that can deliver transformational impacts within global agriculture.

  • Unlike other research awards, the Olam Prize for Innovation in Food Security requires clear evidence of potential short-term impact on food availability, affordability, adequacy, and accessibility.

  • The 2021 Prize will be judged by an independent jury of experts and awarded in conjunction with the Agropolis Louis Malassis International Scientific Prizes for Agriculture and Food and SHIFT Prize by Biovision Foundation.

Conditions:-

Applications are welcomed from academic or research institutions, civil societies and the private sector, and can focus on any region, environment, crop or part of the agricultural supply chain.

Benefits:-

The winner will receive an unrestricted US$75,000 grant for the scaling up of proven research.
