It benchmarks 78 regenerative farms in 14 countries, and claims to be the largest regenerative agriculture study. Read Image Reports Where does plant-based meat fit in the ultra-processed foods conversation? This report by the Good Food Institute, an alternative protein advocacy organisation, claims to be a practical and evidence-based resource for healthcare professionals, policymakers, researchers, NGOs, and patient organisations to unpack the evidence on how plant-based meat fits in the ultra-processed food debate. Read Image Reports Meat Facts This briefing by the Food Foundation aims to support food system stakeholders in how to map out and implement pathways to reduce meat consumption, in light of government and private sector inaction. Read Image Journal articles A natural gene on-off system confers heat tolerance for grain quality and yield in rice Researchers identified a gene strain in rice that can maintain grain quality and yield in high temperatures, potentially a crucial development for producers in regions where climate change is causing extreme heat. Read Image Journal articles Market pathways to food systems transformation toward healthy and equitable diets through convergent innovation This study examines how market dynamics affect the production and consumption of healthy and equitable diets in North America. It argues that isolated social or commercial interventions are ineffective to achieve equitable access to nutritious foods. Read Image Journal articles Publicly tasting cultivated meat and socially constructing perceived value politics and identity This study identifies consumer barriers to cultivated meat in public tasting. It showed the importance of aligning cultivated meat with ethical priorities while meeting sensory and transparency expectations to build consumer trust. Read Image Journal articles Conventional and organic farms with more intensive management have lower soil functionality This study shows that in organic and conventional arable fields, the health of soils increases with lower intensity of management; less-frequent tillage and increased cover cropping, claiming that organic farming did not outperform conventional farming. The authors argue that the paradigm of sustainable intensification should be replaced by “productive deintensification.” Read Image Journal articles Corporate concentration and power matter for agency in food systems This paper argues that increased corporate concentration and power in food systems has the capacity to undermine people’s agency in three core ways. Companies with high market concentration charge higher prices, suppress wages and weaken livelihood opportunities, they shape consumers’ choices, and their corporate lobbying weakens democratic participation.

This event was co-hosted by TABLE and the Oxford Martin Programme on the Future of Food on 2 June 2025 in a hybrid format and took the form of a panel discussion moderated by Tara Garnett (Director, TABLE) with:Rohit Kaushish (Chief Economics Advisor, National Farmers' Union);Constance McDermott (Associate Professor and Jackson Senior Research Fellow in Land Use and Environmental Change, Oriel College and the Environmental Change Institute at University of Oxford);Vassilis Gkoumas (Economist, WWF-UK);Henry Leveson-Gower (Founder & CEO, Promoting Economic Pluralism).The event was inspired by the TABLE explainer Making Nature Count: How should we value nature in our food systems?
