New GFS policy lab report explores how adopting a multifunctional landscapes approach can optimise the ecosystem services provided by our landscapes and boost food system resilience in the UK.
This report explores how UK landscapes can be managed to deliver multiple services, synthesising the current state of knowledge to provide a set of recommendations that can be used to inform future UK agricultural policy.
Following a competitive selection process last month, 12 UKRI-funded early career researchers working across the UK food system attended the GFS Speak Up for Food Security masterclass in central London on 26-27th February.
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) in partnership with government recently launched a £5 million call to support a Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) focused on developing the next generation of interdisciplinary food systems thinkers.
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) in partnership with government are pleased to announce a highly ambitious £25 million call for research to fundamentally transform the UK food system, by placing healthy people and a healthy natural environment at its centre.
This month experts came together for the second meeting of the crop breeding and climate modelling working group. The aim of the working group is to identify ways to protect our food supply in the face of a changing climate and extreme weather.
As the climate crisis escalates, so will its impacts on crop production. To protect our food supply in the face of a changing climate and extreme weather, GFS has launched a working group to improve communication and information sharing between crop breeders and climate modellers.
The Global Food Security programme has published a new horizon scanning report based on the last Science Advisory Group meeting. It highlights the latest contextual developments and research advances relevant to the food system to provide a list of top priority research questions.
