"More complex agroecological systems, that included multiple components (e.g., crop diversification, crop-livestock systems and farmer-to-farmer networks) were more likely to have positive food security and nutrition outcomes."

A recent study published in @Journal_GFS has shown that site-specific nutrient management can lead to a trifecta of benefits for smallholders:
🌽 High yields
💰 Strong profits
💧 Low nutrient losses

600M+ people fall ill annually due to foodborne illness. Over 1/3 of global population is malnourished. How do these high-burden challenges interact & how to better tackle them jointly? New @Journal_GFS paper w/ @GAINAlliance colleagues considers this: bit.ly/3re6HTx 1/

From @Journal_GFS: “In 2020 the biggest impact of Covid-19 on the different dimensions of food security has been on food access and not on food availability [from supply chain disruptions.]”

Mobile financial services (mobile money, mobile banking etc.) could revolutionize smallholder farming in Africa, but this is not yet happening, as we show with representative data from Kenya.

Continuity & change in the contemporary Pacific food system @Journal_GFS just out ⤵️
Led by Neil Andrew, we discuss the integration of the #Pacific #foodsystem into global #foodregimes, external drivers, #publichealth trends & suggest hybrid systems doi.org/10.1016/j.gfs.2021.1… 1/3
ALT Imports of food commodities from major export regions to PICTs and trade flows between PICTS (in gold). Shown are mean annual trade flows for the period 2014–2018 pooled for all food commodities included in this study (see Table S1 for exclusions). Trade flows to and from Papua New Guinea not shown. Red dots indicate relative geographic position of PICT capitals. Residual trade flow into the region includes imports from Africa, the Middle East, South America and South Asia and flows that sum to less than 100 t. Also shown is a residual PICT-PICT trade flow which is the sum of all trade flows <50 t p.a. for each PICT-PICT pairing. The width of lines and height of columns are proportional to quantities traded. Lines representing flows of less than ca. 100 t are not visually distinguishable.
