Enhancing Sustainable Food Production Through Effective Food System Management
Soil health and fertility, climate change and variation, biodiversity loss, pollution, environmental dilapidation, and plant and animal diseases are some food systems disturbances that affect food security.Therefore, a systematic review of 152 published literature from Google, Google Scholar, and Web of Science databases revealed that the challenges impacting food production and food systems sustainability include an expanding population, competition for resources, the complexity of the global food chain, climate change, communicable diseases, and other biological hazards.However, attaining enhanced food system economic performance and social well-being may necessitate plant-based food fermentation, valorizing side-streams for functional ingredients, sustainable protein products, and data science and AI for sustainable business.A food system that wholly delivers food security and nutrition is economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable.
