The world population is increasing and with this the amount of mouths to feed. How do we ensure that our food systems are environmentally, economically and socially sustainable; and that the world’s poorest people are no longer hungry? The answer to this enormous question contains the right technological solutions and massive investments in research combined with the right policy directions.
The report gives seven elaborated recommendations. Some of the most important are:
1. Use appropriate technology and opportunities offered by science.
2. Massive investments in infrastructure in rural areas to be made.
3. Implementation of better policies that prevent distortions in trade and competition.
