It takes long days and hard work to run a dairy farm. But when the result is happy cows and quality milk, it’s all worth it.

Is our food supply at risk? @FAO's The State of Food & Agriculture 2021 report offers a close-up look at how we can make agrifood more resilient to shocks & stresses, & in turn provide affordable, healthy diets for all

Explore the past, the present & the future of agricultural mechanization

How had the availability of food changed over time? How does food supply vary across the world today?

ERS monitors the food security of U.S. households through an annual, nationally representative survey. While most U.S. households are food secure, a minority of U.S. households experience food insecurity at times during the year, meaning that their access to adequate food for active, healthy living is limited by lack of money and other resources. Some experience very low food security, a more severe range of food insecurity where food intake of one or more members is reduced and normal eating patterns are disrupted. Reliable monitoring of food security contributes to the effective operation of USDA’s food and nutrition assistance programs aimed at reducing food insecurity.

Urbanization is transforming agrifood systems and affecting access and affordability to healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum

Policymakers must reimagine the United States’ long-term approach to food production and distribution to build an equitable and sustainable system that works for all.

Extreme hunger & famine is caused by 6 major factors: conflict, climate change, gender inequality, food waste, poverty, and Covid-19.

Sharing Ideas & Approaches for the Transformation of Agricultural and #FoodSystems with a common goal – a world with no hunger.

Around the world, as many as 828 million people are facing hunger. We must transform our #agrifood systems so everyone has access to the food they need. Read the @FAO's interactive story to learn more: https://www.fao.org/interactive/state-of-food-security-nutrition/en/ #SOFI2022

Most of the Earth's biodiversity lies beneath our feet! But what is threatening soil biodiversity and what are the steps we need to take to protect it?

Read the interactive story and learn how hunger is measured.

Food systems refer to different ways societies organize the production and distribution of food. While some types put a strain on the planet, others have a smaller impact.

IISD has reviewed a number of food system visualizations (FSVs) to compare how they focus on and represent different components of food systems and to assess how they cover policy and decision-making priorities, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
