Abstract
Research is needed to support informed decision making and evidence-based policies, programs and services. Research on food security and agriculture in Ethiopia has contributed to significant advances made over the last century. The volume of research produced in these areas is vast; in 2016, this amounted to hundreds of publications each week, on average. In this article, we present a short communication about the trends and knowledge gaps in the food security and agricultural research fields, highlighting opportunities for future research and thought leadership. Systematic reviews can assess and synthesize what is published, while reflections of those engaged in the research fields can help to identify what is not published, or under researched. Our objective is to direct researchers toward areas where information is crucially needed and where contributions to knowledge may have significant impact. We explore four knowledge gaps, specifically in the areas of contextualization, integration, synthesis and intersections. Keywords: Ethiopia, Agriculture, Food Security, Research Trends, Knowledge Gaps

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
