  1. 1. Shifting focus from yields to food supply : an evaluation of the ‘number of people fed per hectare’ indicator at farm and national level

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Ida Ekqvist; [2024]
    Keywords : Land use efficiency; Sustainability indicators; Agricultural productivity; Food production;

    Abstract : The challenge of feeding a growing global population while reducing the pressure on climate and ecosystems has gained much attention in research over the last decades. A crucial yet often overlooked aspect in research addressing this complex challenge is the efficiency of food production in meeting nutritional needs within the constraints of global cropland resources.
