This study aims to provide a comprehensive global assessment of where food and agricultural production conflicts with biodiversity conservation, and the products and countries that contribute the most to these trends. Spatial models of farming and conservation priority areas were used to estimate how the production and consumption of 48 agricultural commodities across 197 countries conflict with the conservation of 7,143 species.

This study examines the potential of a form of agroforestry wherein tree islands  - small areas where native trees are planted or allowed to regenerate naturally - are interspersed with oil-palm monocultures, in order to benefit biodiversity and ecological functioning.

This report from the Centre for Food Policy at City University of London discusses the role middle-chain actors, particularly food manufacturers and retailers, play in influencing farmer and consumer behaviours and how this leads to negative environmental impacts. The findings presented in this report highlight the importance of policy approaches that promote mutual responsibility across the entire supply chain to achieve sustainable production and consumption.

Ninety percent of the 570 million farms globally are small-scale operations (defined in terms of low economic output rather than land holding size (which would describe a smallholder instead)) which together are responsible for a significant proportion of total agricultural production. Thus, understanding and incorporating the perspectives and knowledge of small-scale farmers in policies and practices is crucial for achieving sustainable agriculture development.

This book explores the origins, science and economics of Ultra-Processed Foods and unpacks the effects that the increased dependence on these foods is having on human and environmental health. The book questions narratives of individual choice and responsibility, demonstrating instead how the increased consumption of Ultra-Processed Foods is driven by addiction, big business and a limiting food environment. A series of solutions for doctors, policy makers, and consumers are presented in order to take action against on a global scale.
