Achieving sustainable food security means feeding a growing population without degrading the environment or deepening inequality, and strategies span a spectrum. Technological strategies (sustainable intensification, GM, precision farming, improved irrigation) aim to raise yields efficiently. Agro-ecological strategies (organic methods, agroforestry, diversification) prioritise environmental sustainability and resilience. Socio-economic strategies tackle access: fair trade, poverty reduction, social safety nets, and reducing food waste (a third of food is lost or wasted).
