increasing food supplies globally

[Laura R.]

"Figure 4 | Closing the diet gap. We estimate the potential to increase food supplies by closing the ‘diet gap’: shifting 16 major crops to 100% human food and away from the current mix of uses (see Fig. 1) could add over a billion tonnes to global food production (a 28% increase for those 16 crops), the equivalent of ,331015 kilocalories more food to the global diet (a 49% increase in food calories delivered)"
