How to Reduce Agrifood Systems’ Future Hidden Costs? A Multi-Country Case Study
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) commissioned this study as part of its flagship State of the Food and Agriculture (SOFA) report 2024, “Value driven transformation of agrifood systems.” The background study provides a deep dive on the hidden costs of agrifood systems in six countries: Australia, Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, India and the United Kingdom. Experts from the Food, Agriculture, Biodiversity, Land-Use, and Energy (FABLE) Consortium provide recommendations to improve the assessment of the hidden costs of agrifood systems in each country and test future scenarios to highlight the most desirable and urgent actions for reducing the hidden costs of agrifood systems by 2030 and 2050.
