Food production has transformed our planet. 40% of the land’s surface is used for agriculture, soils and freshwater are under threat, and fisheries are over-exploited.
Millions of smallholders face economic uncertainty, whilst four transnationals control the global grain supply.
And, by 2050, we must feed 9 billion in the face of a changing climate.
On this course, you’ll learn about these challenges in detail and discover potential solutions.
You’ll consider the global food system as a whole, as you explore everything from individual food choice to the impact of agriculture on climate change.
