Emerging Solutions in Sustainable Food and Nutrition Security

Given  the uncertainties in future food and nutrition security due to climate  change compounded with an increasing global population, sustainable  development is essential for the survival of much of the world's  population. Besides the conceptual evolution of food and nutrition  security, exploration of new scientific areas aids in reshaping our  knowledge of nutritional requirements, and innovation of novel  technologies can be utilized to tackle production and security issues in  sustainable ways.  
Emerging Solutions in Sustainable Food and Nutrition Security provides comprehensive  and up-to-date coverage of the current problems and issues, emerging  ideas, and pragmatic solutions in sustainable nutrition. The book is  designed to promote an understanding of the fundamentals and changing  landscapes of food systems, nutrition, and  environmental sustainability. Emerging issues such as the growing  importance of traditional foods in improving nutrition security, the  exploration of biodiversity to promote food diversity, the sustainable  management of current agroecosystems, the progress made in utilizing  biotechnology to enhance crop production, the utilization of  bio-fortification and food fortification as means of nutritional  management, the latest research advancements in mineral research, and  the functional foods are comprehensively addressed.
For researchers  seeking a deeper insight into sustainable nutrition security and the  current technical developments, these chapters cover current  technologies across the four pillars of food security, food  availability, food accessibility, food utilization, and food stability, and provide a platform for critical scientific thinking in the field of food security, safety, and environmental sustainability in conjunction with Sustainable Development Goals such as Zero Hunger and Climate Action.
