Sustainability is an important issue facing food security and safe food production today. Taking an interdisciplinary perspective, this research-oriented volume provides a global outlook to the problems we face in the food sector. It explores integrated, context-specific approaches to food security and food safety and examines the measures that will be required to guarantee long-term sustainability of the food supply chain by reviewing the existing data to encourage action and identify knowledge gaps. It also provides a detailed account of the impacts of the food supply chain along with the basic concepts of environmental sustainability. This new volume reports on important factors that impact both food safety and nutrition security by providing insight into effective policy development and implementation to provide a timely resource on new materials available in the food industry, along with innovative validated approaches on how to develop sustainable food for a growing world population. Using new approaches and case studies, the book reviews several types of risks associated with each step of the food chain to make it an ideal resource. Food Security, Safety, and Sustainability: Validated Innovative Approaches and Technological Advancements provides practical examples used to enhance food security, safety, and sustainability. This book will be a valuable resource for food science professionals, including food engineers, food scientists, and postgraduate researchers working in food security and safety.
