It presents different scenarios for aquaculture and fisheries production projections up to 2030 and highlights the potential implications for food security. The authors identify a gap in future food security literature, both within literature focused on fish and the literature more broadly, that has lacked incorporation of the impact of supply and demand due to changes in food prices, household income, and consumer preferences. Read Image Journal articles Algae as a source of protein in the sustainable food and gastronomy industry This paper gives an overview of the prospects for algae production as a source of protein as well as other nutrients including vitamins, beta-carotene and polyunsaturated fatty acids in Europe. The authors examine algae as a source of protein, the current European protein market and challenges and opportunities for production in Europe. Read Image Journal articles Can healthy diets be achieved worldwide in 2050 without farmland expansion? This paper adds to the literature on modelling agricultural land-use demand in 2050 given a growing global population, climate change-induced changes in yields, and projections for as-yet unrealised technological improvements. The main innovation of this study is to constrain the amount of dietary change that can be included in the model. Consequently, this model includes much more regional dietary variation than do other such projections, and much higher ASF consumption than many. The authors find that, contrary to previous studies, several regions cannot achieve food security without expanding agricultural land use. In particular, more pasture land is needed, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. In a wider group of regions, producing sufficient food without increasing agricultural land use only appears possible if we assume an optimistic scenario for increasing yields Read Image News and resources Israel: Starvation Used as Weapon of War in Gaza Human Rights Watch has reported that the Israeli government is starving civilians, a recognized war crime, as a military tactic. High ranking Israeli officials have publicly supported a complete blockage of humanitarian aid including food and water. Read Image News and resources COP28: Key outcomes for food, forests, land and nature This article from Carbon Brief recaps the key food and agriculture issues discussed and negotiated at COP28 which saw voluntary commitments and negotiated texts on food and agriculture in relation to climate change. The article provides more in-depth analysis in several topics including nature finance, food systems transformations, nature-based solutions and more. Read Image Journal articles Preserving global land and water resources through the replacement of livestock feed crops with agricultural by-products Researchers find that substantial amounts of agricultural land and water could be saved by replacement of livestock feed with agricultural by-products. This article presents a predictive model which explores the impact of feed replacement with agricultural by-products on agricultural resource uses. Read Image News and resources Eat less meat: Will the first global climate deal on food work? For the first time in three decades, COP28 dedicated a day of discussion to greenhouse gas emissions from food and agriculture, resulting in the first global declaration on reducing emissions from food production. But, researchers in the nature journal say that not enough has been agreed upon in the deal Read Image Journal articles The state of food systems worldwide in the countdown to 2030 The Food Systems Countdown Initiative (FSCI) framework was released which seeks to monitor global food systems transformations following the UN global development, health and sustainability goals. The framework is designed to support policymakers, advisors, private sector actors and civil society actors monitoring food systems worldwide. Read Image News and resources COP28 UAE Declaration on Sustainable Agriculture, Resilient Food Systems, and Climate Action The importance of addressing agriculture and food systems to achieve SDG goals for 2030 was highlighted at COP28. 159 Heads of State and Government signed a declaration which was published during COP28 in December of 2023.
