A doubling in global food demand projected for the next 50 years poses huge challenges for the sustainability
both of food production and of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and the services they provide to society.
Agriculturalists are the principal managers of global useable lands and will shape, perhaps irreversibly, the
surface of the Earth in the coming decades. New incentives and policies for ensuring the sustainability of
agriculture and ecosystem services will be crucial if we are to meet the demands of improving yields without
compromising environmental integrity or public health.
