Scientific advances have improved food and nutritional security since the onset of the Green Revolution. Continued progress is needed in order to meet the needs of a growing global population and to ensure that our food production systems are resilient against the expanding impacts of climate change. Furthermore, to fully achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, there is a need to find new ways to reduce the impacts that food production itself has on the environment.
In this Collection, Nature Communications presents papers providing solutions for improving the capacity, reliability, and sustainability of food production systems. We also welcome new submissions of research and opinion pieces that address challenges in sustainable food production from either the technological or the ecological perspective.
