TL;DR: Clearer understanding is needed of the premises underlying SI and how it relates to food-system priorities and climate change poses challenges to agriculture.
Abstract: Food security is high on the global policy agenda. Demand for food is increasing as populations grow and gain wealth to purchase more varied and resource-intensive diets.
