A map spotlights food systems sustainably (Mongbay)

December 11, 2019


Mongbay (India) reported on a new food system sustainability indicator that can be used to track changes in sustainability over time. Director of Capacity Strengthening Suresh Babu stated, “This metric is more useful to compare the status of countries in their food systems. In the context of India, one could use this metric to compare states of India, then policymakers will benefit more. One would imagine southern states within India will fare well compared to northern and eastern states.”
