Research and commentary on all aspects of food production, processing, distribution & consumption that contribute to food security and sustainable food systems
July issue: Flavonoids, pest migration, US-Mexico import tariffs, food ingredient safety, Myanmar's poultry-fish sector, nitrogen benchmarking for cropping systems… and more! nature.com/natfood/volume…
Correspondence: the #UNFSS+4 starting in Ethiopia next week must be grounded in transparent governance, direct participation in decision-making processes, and accountability. nature.com/articles/s4301…
June issue: Food biodiversity indices, soil health, ammonia decarbonization, mangroves, national pathways for food systems transformation, semantics of food waste… and more! nature.com/natfood/volume…
Comment in Nature: The sudden withdrawal of almost half of global funding for nutrition suddenly will have dire consequences for decades. nature.com/articles/d4158…
Data on small-scale fisheries has been piecemeal. A systematic assessment of the sector yields insights into some of their most vital contributions to humanity. nature.com/immersive/d428…
May issue: Air pollution from agricultural machinery, food waste as resources, Africa’s potential fish production, biochar application, global seafood mercury, shortcomings of food processing classifications… and more nature.com/natfood/volume…
April issue: Dietary preferences and healthy aging, aquaculture systems in China, soil biodiversity and resilience, digital agriculture, public health approaches to better diets… and more! nature.com/natfood/volume…
March issue: food environments and human health in focus nature.com/collections/ej…
Article: fruit forms a large proportion of all food lost or wasted. Advances in plasmonics and sub-Terahertz spectroscopy enable development of a sticker for detecting fruit ripeness. nature.com/articles/s4301…
Comment: coffee, cocoa and palm oil production can incur negative socioeconomic impacts. Alternatives produced using cellular agriculture could address future supply gaps. nature.com/articles/s4301…
February issue: labor market, food waste policy in the USA, crop rotation in Tibet, public food procurement in the UK, low opportunity cost feed, value-added taxes for foods in the EU, production diversity and diets in rural Africa... and more! nature.com/natfood/volume…
Brief Communication: global phosphorus stocks in croplands and grasslands not readily available to plants represent 32–41% of the 2020 estimated geologic reserves, or 146–186 years of the P fertilizers applied annually. nature.com/articles/s4301…
Perspective: safe and reliable cell sources are needed to scale up cultivated meat production. Details from pre-market dossiers can help with food safety issues associated with commercial upscaling and commercial viability. nature.com/articles/s4301…
Article: a predictive equation for total energy expenditure shows that misreporting of energy intake in large dietary survey datasets is greater than 50%. The equation reduces reliance on traditional dietary assessment methods. nature.com/articles/s4301…
Analysis: the first annual monitoring update of the indicator framework proposed by the Food Systems Countdown Initiative shows governance and resilience to be most connected to other indicators across themes, highlighting entry points for action. nature.com/articles/s4301…
Perspective: degrowth posits a radical pathway of transformation to reduce ecological impacts while increasing well-being and reducing inequality. Food systems and degrowth transformation measures must be better aligned through concrete practical actions. nature.com/articles/s4301…
Article: proteomic signatures can complement traditional dietary assessment methods by linking healthy dietary patterns and risk of major chronic diseases and mortality - ultimately aiding the development of personalized dietary interventions. nature.com/articles/s4301…
