The future food and agriculture system
About the course
The transformation of food and agriculture is one of the most urgent shifts of our time. Today’s food systems are a major driver of climate change, water stress, and biodiversity loss, but they also hold the key to solutions. By moving toward more sustainable production and consumption, we can reduce emissions, protect ecosystems, and secure resilient freshwater resources. For businesses, this transformation is directly relevant: supply chain stability, consumer trust, and long-term growth all depend on how quickly and effectively we align food and agriculture with the limits of our planet.
Learn how to future-proof your business by building resilient and competitive models that reduce risk and create long-term value. Future-fit Agriculture goes beyond doing less harm – it is about transforming food production to operate within planetary boundaries, support human health, ensure high animal welfare standards, and proactively address human–wildlife conflicts. Together, these elements help secure long-term access to raw materials, reduce climate and nature-related risks, and strengthen supply chain resilience in an increasingly volatile world.
By applying circular economy principles, companies can improve resource efficiency, reduce waste and dependency on external inputs, while unlocking cost savings, innovation, and new opportunities for value creation.
