Opportunities
and Challenges for Research on Food and Nutrition Security and Agriculture in
Europe new resource ***

report combines analysis of the current status in Europe with exploration of
ways forward. Funders who support
agriculture and nutrition research need to focus much more of their resources
on food intake and on diets. The era of commodity research aimed at feeding a
starving world is over; a new era has begun that requires us to nourish all
consumers globally in ways that can be sustained environmentally, economically
and culturally.

reducing environmental degradation, has yet seen limited uptake in sub-Saharan
Africa
