From value chains to food webs: The quest for lasting food systems

D. Knorr et al.

Summary: This review highlights the transitions needed from linear food chains to closed loop systems and wider food webs for more sustainable food systems, emphasizing the importance of considering the complexities in food value chains. To ensure the long-term sustainability of the planet, globally accepted definitions and indicators for sustainability need to be developed, and a systems-based approach is required for developing sustainable food systems.
