Abstract This article explores the implications for development-oriented agronomy of the growing interest in (in)equity as part of the story of food system transformation. We argue that while agronomy is not in a position to lead on addressing (in)equity among farmers, to say nothing of within the food system more broadly, ignoring the on-going debate about food (in)equity would be professionally irresponsible. Agronomy and agronomists must find ways to engage with (in)equity that are rooted in awareness, reflection and realism. We suggest how this might be done. | ||
