农业和粮食系统负责任投资原则的影响研究

Principles for Responsible Investment in Agriculture and Food Systems:Impacts and Countermeasures

世界粮食安全委员会于2014年10月批准通过了《农业和粮食系统负责任投资原则》。该原则起因于近年来海外农业投资规模大幅度增加及其给粮食安全和营养等方面带来的复杂影响,制定过程中实现了充分的包容性和参与性,且主要国际组织、民间社会均认同该原则,预计原则实施将会改善长期投资环境,影响海外农业投资方式,但同时也可能会提高投资准入门槛、增加海外投资成本、加大海外投资不确定性。本文结合农业投资原则影响与当前中国海外农业投资形势,区分相关主管部门与海外投资企业,从宣传推广《投资原则》、加强农业走出去统筹指导、优化农业企业走出去平台、强化海外农业投资信息服务、建立绩效导向的支持体系、主动对接东道国发展战略、加强合作与行业自律等方面提出了相关建议。

The Principles for Responsible Investment in Agriculture and Food Systems were approved by the Committee on World Food Security( CFS) in October 2014. The formulation of these Principles stems mainly from the rapid growth of overseas agricultural investment and its complex impacts on food security and nutrition. The consultation and negotiation process is inclusive and participatory. All kinds of stakeholders,especially the international organizations and NGOs have reached consensus on the final version of these Principles. According to the preliminary analysis,the implementation of these Principles will improve the long-term investment environment and change the modes of overseas investment on agriculture,but at the same time,it will probably raise the threshold of entry for the investment,increase the cost of overseas investment and amplify the uncertainty of investment. Considering the possible impacts and the current situation of Chinese overseas investment,some policy suggestions are proposed,including: disseminating the Principles to various stakeholders especially enterprises,formulating the overall plans of‘Go Out'strategy in agriculture,optimizing the channels of overseas agriculture investment,enhancing services provisions for overseas investment,designing performance-oriented supporting systems,scheduling to development strategy of host country,strengthening cooperation and sector selfregulation,etc.
