Food security, farming, and climate change to 2050 | International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI)
Food security, farming, and climate change to 2050 | International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI): "As the global population grows and incomes in poor countries rise, so too, will the demand for food, placing additional pressure on sustainable food production.

This study assesses how serious the danger to food security might be and suggests some steps policymakers can take to remedy the situation."
