Energy Use in Global Food Production
Considerations for Sustainable Food Security in the 21st Century /[electronic resource] :by Meera Verma. - 1st ed. 2015. - XIII, 49 p. 4 illus. in color.online resource. - SpringerBriefs in Food, Health, and Nutrition,2197-571X. - SpringerBriefs in Food, Health, and Nutrition,.
Introduction -- The Food and Energy Connection -- Food, Water and Energy Nexus -- Food Wastage – Energy Wasted -- Energy Intensity and Efficiency in Food Production -- Improving Sustainability in Agriculture -- The Way Forward.
This Brief examines the sustainability of energy use in global food production and processing. The nexus between food, water, and energy are explored against a background of climate change. Current efforts to reduce the energy intensity of food and increase sustainability are explored. Food waste and its impact on energy is covered, including regional variations and nutrient recycling methods. Energy Use in Global Food Production uses case studies to illustrate how food production and processing is a significant contributor to anthropogenic climate change. Modern industrial agriculture uses fossil fuel to grow crops and produce fertilizers, pesticides and farm machinery. Additional energy is used to transport and process food at a primary and secondary level. With the median forecast for global population at more than 9 billion by 2030, a 30% increase over the current population, energy efficient food processing will be of increasing importance. This Brief provides an overview of current energy efficient food processing methods looks at the way forward as demands continue to increase. .
