A focus on future and current food security in countries still developing. Food security is under the thread of climate change, population growth, environmental degradation, loss in farming knowledge and an young generation not wanting to become farmers like their parents, and continuous increases in food prices. How to break the hunger cycle and provide food for all while preserving our nature and mitigating climate change?
