Abstract

The rise of BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) has significantly shifted the global economic and geopolitical landscape, profoundly impacting agriculture. As these emerging economies grow in power, they are reshaping global agrarian systems through substantial changes in production, trade and policy. This article explores how BRICS nations are influencing global agriculture by investing in agrarian technologies, altering trade patterns and reconfiguring supply chains. It also examines their approaches to food security and sustainability challenges, highlighting how their evolving agricultural strategies are affecting global market dynamics. The article investigates the economic impacts of BRICS on global agriculture, focusing on how these nations’ economic activities influence agricultural markets and systems. It also analyses how technological advancements and innovations within BRICS countries are transforming agricultural practices and productivity. Additionally, the piece looks at shifts in agricultural trade flows involving BRICS nations and their strategies for addressing food security and self-sufficiency. The implications of BRICS’ agricultural practices on environmental sustainability and resource management are considered, along with the socio-economic impacts on rural communities. Finally, it evaluates how the policy and regulatory frameworks adopted by BRICS nations affect the broader global agricultural landscape. By examining these trends, the article provides valuable insights into the opportunities and challenges presented by the BRICS revolution for global food systems, emphasising the need for adaptive strategies in agricultural policies and practices.
