In This Issue: Righting systemic food and farming inequalities [Editorial]

First paragraph: The spring 2026 issue of the Journal of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Community Development brings together a set of contributions that, while they are open-call and not in response to a specific call for papers, col­lectively examine how food systems are governed, how access and equity are structured, how agroecological transitions unfold, and how knowledge systems and cultural values shape transformation. Across its entire content, the issue reflects a strong throughline of systems thinking, place-based analysis, and an expanding recognition of the wide range of ways of knowing and acting within food systems. . . .
