First-contact tribal nations in the eastern United States can produce some, but not all, of their food needs in a changing climate: a modeling study

Under modeled conditions, we estimated that Indigenous agriculture in the eastern United States can support some, but not all, of the population's dietary needs. Greater efforts are needed to foster agricultural initiatives that promote food sovereignty and reduce nutrition-related health disparities, but their viability in this region will depend on future supply-demand dynamics that are influenced by changing political landscapes.

Abstract

Under modeled conditions, we estimated that Indigenous agriculture in the eastern United States can support some, but not all, of the population's dietary needs. Greater efforts are needed to foster agricultural initiatives that promote food sovereignty and reduce nutrition-related health disparities, but their viability in this region will depend on future supply-demand dynamics that are influenced by changing political landscapes.
