Chapter Chapter 6 in Food in a Planetary Emergency, 2022, pp 93-120 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The human response in defying situations, such as the present planetary emergency combined with the COVID-19 pandemic, is to find technological solutions allowing society to transition on a new trajectory that transforms the current practices for good. The chapter outlines the need to transition to better food production practices and introduces new technological changes related to vertical farming, artificial constructions (or ponics), agroecology, agroforestry, the use of drones and nanotechnology and application of ICTs, including artificial intelligence, 3D printing and blockchain. This facilitates clever food production and choices that are environmentally and nutritionally better.
