Whereas some stakeholders advocate maintaining exports to help ‘feed the world’, others question the validity of this rationale and its environmental consequences. Here we assess the Netherlands’ net-export potential using an agroecological food system model. We find that producing the food groups currently consumed domestically would require all available land in the country. Even with a shift towards more plant-based diets, the potential to export food remains limited if land is also required for strengthening natural ecosystems and fostering the biobased economy. These findings challenge the economic ‘feeding the world’ narrative and underscore the need for an ecological perspective. Our approach can be applied to other regions, helping to redefine their role in the global food supply. The Netherlands is one of the world’s top trading countries and the second largest exporter of agricultural goods. Using an agroecological food system model, this study examines the feasibility of this position.","PeriodicalId":94151,"journal":{"name":"Nature food","volume":"7 6","pages":"539-548"},"PeriodicalIF":24.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148261127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using grain production, trade and environmental data from 1980 to 2020, we quantify environmental spillovers embedded in China’s interprovincial grain trade, identify their socio-economic and climatic drivers, project future scenarios and estimate ecological compensation schemes. Interprovincial grain trade increased more than fivefold (from 22 to 128 million tonnes), and production shifted northwards, generating a 196% increase in virtual cropland displacement, a 415% rise in virtual water consumption and more than a 217% increase in embodied nitrogen losses and greenhouse gas emissions in China. Irrigation, mechanization and urbanization were the key drivers of these shifts, outweighing climatic influences. Continued reliance on northern grain exports could escalate environmental costs, and climate-induced yield declines may shrink trade networks. Addressing these inequitable regional ecological burdens may require south-to-north transfers of up to US$12.5 billion by 2060 under Shared Socioeconomic Pathway 2–4.5. Northward shifts in China’s grain production, driven by expanded trade and climate change, transfer environmental burdens to less affluent northern regions—a trend that is environmentally and economically unsustainable. Spatially differentiated compensation mechanisms are needed to redress these growing regional inequities.","PeriodicalId":94151,"journal":{"name":"Nature food","volume":"7 6","pages":"565-576"},"PeriodicalIF":24.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148261116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we used modern portfolio theory to explore Pareto-optimal spatial arrangements of global rainfed cropping that explicitly account for trade-offs between total crop production and its interannual variability (risk). We analysed production/risk trade-offs under recent historical climate and yields for 2010, as well as under business-as-usual (RCP 6.0) and ambitious mitigation (RCP 2.6) climate futures for 2050. We found that optimizing the spatial distribution of rainfed crops could increase global production by 10.1% while maintaining the same level of risk as in 2010 or, alternatively, reduce production variability by 33.1% while maintaining the same level of production level as in 2010, all without additional land or water. Optimal global rainfed cropping patterns could meet future food demand with enhanced resilience under increased climate variability but only with yield-gap closure and more open and globalized trade, highlighting the need for coordinated production strategies, strengthened trade cooperation and sustainable intensification within climate adaptation policy. Spatial optimization can reduce production risk and improve output without expanding land or irrigation, but meeting future demand will require a combined strategy of global crop redistribution, yield-gap closure and stronger trade cooperation.","PeriodicalId":94151,"journal":{"name":"Nature food","volume":"7 6","pages":"577-588"},"PeriodicalIF":24.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148261141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, using a machine learning approach, we analyse 848 global manure, food waste and sewage sludge composting experiments, identifying 19 key management parameters that drive ammonia (NH3), nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. We estimate annual global losses during the composting process at 747 kt NH3-N, 81 kt N2O-N and 592 kt CH4-C, equivalent to ~61 MtCO2e yr−1. By optimizing organic waste processing strategies, such as adjusting aeration, additives and C/N ratios, the composting chain could transition from a net emitter (40.1 MtCO2e) to a C sink (−15.1 MtCO2e), while conserving nutrients for crops. Under an optimal reduction scenario, China, Brazil and the United States emerge as the top three C sinks for composting, collectively accounting for 65% of total emission reductions. Organic waste mismanagement can degrade soils and increase pollution.

Here we examined how lacking food and food safety covaried with lacking clean drinking water, using World Risk Poll data from 121 countries across country-income levels (N = 124,003). Lacking food for more than a day in the past year was associated with lacking clean drinking water for more than a day in the past year. Participants who lacked both food and clean water, or either alone (versus neither) were more likely to experience food safety threats and be concerned about food safety. Relationships held across country-income levels. Low-income countries (especially in Eastern Africa) and high-income countries (especially in Northern America) showed compounded effects of lacking food and clean drinking water on food safety. Worldwide, food insecurity, food safety and water insecurity should be addressed jointly. Food preparation typically requires access to clean drinking water. This Analysis of data from the World Risk Poll explores the links between food sufficiency, clean drinking water availability and their impact on food safety threats across low-, middle- and high-income regions.","PeriodicalId":94151,"journal":{"name":"Nature food","volume":"7 6","pages":"613-620"},"PeriodicalIF":24.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148145985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
