Circularity as a complement to productivity, efficiency, and self-sufficiency concepts for greater sustainability in food systems
Abstract Circularity is a powerful strategy for decreasing the use of non-renewable resources, nutrient pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions from food systems. To enhance food system sustainability, circularity and its trade-offs should be considered along with productivity, efficiency, or self-sufficiency strategies.
