« Le nombre de personnes sous-alimentées dans le monde demeure inacceptablement élevé à un seuil d'environ 925 millions de personnes. Les problèmes de sécurité alimentaire mondiale existent maintenant et sont particulièrement préoccupants pour l'avenir, car la population mondiale est prévue d'augmenter d'environ 35 % au cours des 40 prochaines années. La production agricole devra augmenter de manière significative pour répondre à la croissance démographique. La majeure partie de cette augmentation devrait provenir de la production accrue sur les terres agricoles existantes (c'est-à-dire une intensification agricole), bien que de nouvelles terres agricoles soient probablement nécessaires. L'augmentation des rendements des cultures et la réduction de l'écart entre le rendement réel et le rendement réalisable peuvent être atteints par la mise en œuvre et l'avancement de nombreuses pratiques et technologies, incluant des pratiques de gestion des nutriments et des technologies d'engrais. Une évaluation des études à long terme a montré que le pourcentage moyen du rendement dû aux apports d'engrais variait généralement de 40 à 60 % dans les climats tempérés (États-Unis et Angleterre), et tendait à être beaucoup plus élevé sous les tropiques. Sous une perspective inclusive globale, les engrais inorganiques jouent un rôle essentiel dans la sécurité alimentaire mondiale, mais il faut reconnaître que les rendements les plus élevés sont, dans certains systèmes, le résultat de l'utilisation de sources de nutriments à la fois organiques et inorganiques. L'adoption des principes 4B - la bonne source de nutriments au bon taux, au bon moment et au bon endroit - contribue à assurer une utilisation appropriée des ressources nutritives et une productivité optimisée.
