Achieving global food security and restoring demands on the environment is the greatest challenge faced by mankind. By 2050 at least 9 billion people will need food, and increasing incomes and urbanization will inevitably lead to dietary change. The food security challenge will increasingly encompass the triple burden of malnutrition – undernutrition, obesity and micronutrient deficiencies. The urgency of the issues has led to huge scientific strides forwards, making it difficult to keep up with the rapidly expanding volume of scientific research. Policies to improme global and local food security  needs to be implemented and decision makers will  have to make difficult choices to improve the food security of local people against the background of drastic global and local changes.
