Securing future food: towards ecological food provision
UK Food Group, 2010
We need to make a radical shift towards ecological food provision, developed in the framework of food sovereignty, in order to secure future food for the world’s predicted 9 billion people. The systems that currently feed most people in the world are smaller-scale and locally-sourced. They can be enhanced through practices based on agroecology to meet current and future global demands for food. Research and trade policies and agricultural support measures urgently need to be reoriented in this direction.
