The CSIC’s functions include informing, assisting and advising public and private entities in the field of science and technology, as stated in article 5 of its Articles of Association. Undertaking this task, we present the report on Producing food without depleting the planet, from the Science for Public Policy series, as a document targeting public administrations and society in general. Herein, the current food crisis is discussed along with the factors that have caused it and its consequences. Authors present the impact of food production on our planet and vice versa: the influence of a changing planet on the food supply. Finally, the report outlines some of the organisation’s most important lines of innovation that aim to tackle the challenges posed.
