Food 2030
Hilary Benn has unveiled the UK Government's new food strategy, Food 2030. The strategy sets out goals for 2030, and the changes that need to be made to achieve them.
Hilary Benn says:
"We need to produce more food. We need to do it sustainably. And we need to make sure that what we eat safeguards our health."
The six key themes of the strategy are:
1. Encouraging and enabling people to eat a healthy, sustainable diet
2. Having a resilient and economically sustainable food system
3. Increasing food production sustainably
4. Reducing the food system's greenhouse gas emissions
5. Reducing, reusing and reprocessing waste
6. Having the appropriate research, skills, knowledge and technology
