A Transformative Research Agenda as Next GRA Flagship

SLIDE 2

A Global Flagship Proposal

SLIDE 3

Food Production in Biobased Society

SLIDE 4

From Linear to Circular, no Waste to Spill

Use currently spilled biomass (crop residuals, manure) to produce

food

Maximize resource use efficiency in all parts of the cycle

SLIDE 5

Vision

Towards integrated crop-livestock within a circular

system production, that maximizes the overall production of nutritious human edible food, minimizes the environmental impact, reduces the emission of greenhouse gases, and enhances soil carbon sequestration.

SLIDE 6

A Transformative Flagship

Understanding circularity of food systems at

farm/national/regional/local scales

Developing innovations to optimize food-feed-fuel production

systems

Assessing the feasibility and potential of circular food systems
Developing best practices in integrative crop; livestock;

manure and soil management Double purpose crops; production and digestibility of alternative feed; manure versus green or chemical fertilization; soil carbohydrate dynamics.
