Food systems

A system that embraces all elements and activities that relate to production, processing, distribution and marketing, preparation and consumption of food, and acknowledges the interactions between natural resources/ecosystems services, primary food, food processing, packaging, logistics, marketing, retail, food services, consumption and waste management/recycling and the many feedback loops between them, which together defines the degree of complexity.
