Abstract
By 2050, global food production must rise 50% despite climate change threats like extreme weather and pests. Achieving this requires optimizing land and water use through integrated approaches: enhancing soil health, employing precision agriculture, and promoting biodiversity. Developing stress-resistant crops, reducing waste across the food chain, and utilizing satellite monitoring and smart farming technologies are essential for building resilient, sustainable food systems.
