Innovations in Sustainable Food Security

Making food sustainably accessible, available, and acceptable

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The Book, Innovations in Sustainable Food Security, x-rays the importance and the techniques developed to produce, improve, process, preserve, and manage our foods. Achieving zero hunger in the near future will require new and existing applications of science, technology, and innovation across the food systems, addressing all dimensions of food security: Availability, Access to food, food use/utilization and food stability. The paper not only highlights the tools and techniques for specific challenges such as improving productivity or minimizing postharvest food loss but also draws attention to the need for developing countries to invest in the capability to innovate. Innovative capabilities are critical not only for ensuring nutritious food at all times but also for harnessing agriculture and the broader food systems as a driver of economic and sustainable development.Even though there is a significant trend towards the use of 'natural' preservatives to replace chemical synthetics used in foods, research on identifying the sources of the natural alternatives has largely focused on plant extracts and products of microbial fermentation.
