FOOD FOR THE FUTURE - A Short Documentary

- Ahead of World Food Day, we’re premiering a new documentary film, Food for the Future (#Food4theFuture). It documents the world’s current food revolution.
Global agriculture generates as much greenhouse gas as the worldwide transport sector. Sustainable food production is therefore not a luxury but a necessity for our common future.
How can we best balance the need for nutritious and affordable food and that of protecting the environment?
It pains my heart to see the condition of farmers around the world. Agriculture is the back bone of India, yet the people practicing it are the most looked down upon. It is the livelihood of many, and it should not be taken away from them just so that big private companies can fill their already stuffed pockets with more money.
Does it pain your heart 🤣

there is no food shortage only food hoarding and food wastage. Be the change you want to see. Do something yourself.
Studies are always based on the methods that are used today. Scientific growing is decades ahead of that, despite the fact that a majority of food in the world is still grown by hand, without the use of any machinery or advanced fertilizers. More realistic estimates are around 12-15bn people that can EASILY be fed by the world.
Just not as easy and cheap as growing it through means of mass production or slave labor. that's the only issue. but not so expensive that people would starve...
@@liquidminds bigger issue is lack of clean water that kills way more people, especially children and is #1 killer of children in the world. When it comes to food, you're right, a more metaphorical way of putting is, "we don't have a food shortage problem, we have a food distribution problem" but many of these places don't have the ability to even grow food or, especially the right kinds of foods for all the nutrients, etc. Food isn't just substance for the stomach, it's obviously more complicated than that. So the problem with "starvation" is it keeps people sick rather than kills people.
YOU KNOW NOTHING!!!!!
.... YOU'RE RIDICULOUS!
if you don't believe in food shortages I feel sorry for you, STOCK UP or you'll be in trouble
hi fitnessgood body, my husband is a farmer in austria and the reason they aren’t payed enough is due to the people who would rather own expensive cars and mobile phones and save on food. if only people realized how addicted they are to their houses, vehicles, and technologies they would quickly realize the importance of feeding themselves properly. I wouldn rather eat meat once a week and support our hard working honest farmers than everyday and slowly see the death of our farming industry. Do not forget that without farmers the world is not able to feed itself. let the governments open up their eyes and understand that if they want to eat their Angus Steaks on Sunday while sipping their Chardoney around their inground pools chatting about how they are pseudo saving the planet and working long hours,,,,,ha ha ha ha ha . LoL. then they should come and spend one week on our farm and then they will really appreciate their freak and T bone steak the next time they grill it. That is it for me .
Such an eye opener. Long Live Mother Earth, we love you.🥰🙏
I learned a lot from this video.
I have heard it all before. Many times in the past we have been told we will not be able to feed the projected population and every time the forecasts have been wrong.
There are many forecasts out there. It is the more doomist ones that get the most attention and of course they tend to be wrong. However, keep going towards population growth and climate change, and we will run into huge problems. Guranteed.

This time is different, with climate deregulation, the end of oil and population growth.
It doesn't take 500 years to produce an inch of topsoil. Permaculturists are doing that in a year.
I imagine in nature is what they meant. First the biomass needs to add up and then decompose over a few years. Probably a very slow process anywhere that is not in a forest where there are lots of leaves every fall.
Yeah, it does take a while unassisted letting the Earth do it!@@excitedbox5705
Top soil and manure or organic waste are different. You know that right?
You think in a years rocks and gravels will erode into soil?
Im american and i surely am not mocking anyone for poor crops. my prized cucumbers got blight last year and i had way less pickles.
Well, as a Doctor I have a difference of opinion...
EVERYTHING DOESN'T NEED A SHORTCUT AND TIME-SAVING.....specially when it comes to what's going to reside in our tummies for a while??? These upcoming technology based-products involve mechanical approach & do not even contain the nutrition you eat for. Even if they start the production holding the nutritious values, processing and additives to the the animal stem cells to finally taste like the real steaks and meat, will be like eating a dead organism's meat whos genetic make up was still underdeveloped.... please search for the concept of stem cells , they are good for treatment of various diseases like Arthritis and cancers....and are still under research even to be used for cure... and here they want you to eat them just for their PROFITS....and most of all , there will be more Cancers and mysterious diseases in future generations.
Loving the Organic and Mother nature is the only Healthy option
they should use wood chips it holds in the water and the plants grow alot better
@Zerodovah that's not entirely true, there is enough dead wood out there to sustainably start many farms. It's just all about how you gather the resources.
God will bless Dr OKOUGBO who save my life from Herpes illness With his herbal medicine I can't stop thanking him for what him have done for me If you need any herbal help or Cure to any illness from him then contact (dr.okougboharbalhome gmail com) or you can also contact him on what's app on +2348167318473 believe me you will never regret contacting him OK I Love You All And Thanks Dr OkOUGBO
@Zerodovah I think they meant mulch, which comes in many forms. Either way, wood chips are typically an industrial biproduct.
even if any of your discussion is true , Monsanto and Dow Chemical are not the solution , but rather the problem .
DISMANTLE THE WELFARE STATE.
They have millions of data points and technologies in patents that we can utilize to solve this problem. Your narrow-minded view of the world allows you to see only a small picture of how everything is interconnected. Yet here you are on your soapbox acting like you know shit. What a joke you are.
This video gives me so much hope. ❤
this is pretty interesting
good video.
Reduce, reuse, recycle. No climate change only solar minimum and maximum every 400 or so years. change farming techniques to include cattle cropping and horticulture. Plant trees on the land and become sustainable. families need to have a garden to grow food.
If families need a garden to grow food, than more than 90% of the world's population would die
I dream of a day that wasted space, including city property - median strips, parks, curbside areas, alleyways, etc. are all utilized to grow fruit trees and vegetables for free distribution, maintained by the residents in those areas.
I'd hoped to hear mention of using seaweed - an absolutely golden market to tap into - to reduce the methane produced by cattle by up to 80%. Why is this still under the radar?
It's also great to see efforts being made to find more sustainable solutions to fertilizers. With methane from enteric fermentation thus reduced and hopefully the emissions from the soil significantly reduced, up to half of the emissions by the agricultural sector can be reduced.
The rest will have to come from consumers: make cow meat a luxury again and reduce the intake of dairy products. These two elements are the single most polluting foods that humans consume and take up the most amount of (agricultural) space in the world. So much food is grown just to feed the meat, taking up a huge amount of the habitable land on our planet. A _lot_ of progress can be made on this front alone.
Ruminants & seaweed - this video was publish in 2017. Companies such as Symbrosia are fairly new, so such companies were probably not on the commercial radar back then.
@@cupofkoa people don't want to eat seaweed
...and this supercilious splurt of antihuman rhetoric in contrast to the single largest expulsion of methane into the atmosphere EVER in the world (far outweighing anything coming from cattle raising before or in the future) committed by the same cartel trying to prevent people from attaining and maintaining perfect health (eliminating Big Pharma) with the Proper Human Diet.
For those able to be objective talk of reducing emissions is a euphemism for reducing humanity. It would be very helpful to humanity if they collectively would cease consuming resources, breathing out CO2 and become the carbon they detest so much.

At least we can eat our way out of our problems make it fun and cultural
This is now more concerning that the decline of agriculturists because of the government neglecting it and focusing more on other courses as a priority
The decline of agriculture is because of environmental change and the shortage of effectively researching agriculture.
Environmental change is the #1 biggest problem of agriculture. What causes environmental change? MEAT, can we live without it? Yes its so easy. Let's all do it to change the world. Or atleast try to
There's not enough researching facilities about agriculture, we are growing so many monocultures just to feed animals that we then consume. Meat is the number one cause of isolation and destruction. We can live fully plant based and research more in the agricultural aspect of growing plants in New techniques. Using watering technology that they do in Kenya in combination with good polycultural growth. I think that's the answer. And not force feed animals and then kill them at 6 months old to then eat it just for pleasure. We need to get our nutrients from plants that we grow effectively and efficiently.
Food + Energy + Water = Future.
Soylent green...everyone is fed...those that want out ..still have use
10 Billion people is sustainable, if people don't waste food, their diet is sustainable and innovative technologies for more food production with less carbon output and cheaper.
But all of us want a cell phone, a car a house a computer, and update all these gadgets every single year, and when we have every thing we need..... we're having new needs, and we can't feel happy... The real problem is 10 billion of unsatisfied well fed people.
@@robertcasellas4751
people are starving around the world OPEN YOUR EYES
@@swolfe9668 wow…. Maybe I didn’t explain well what I meant, or maybe you didn’t understand. Be sure, my eyes are open… I think my message at no point suggests that there are no hungry people right now.
The goal of this coercively-funded State programme, is more State coercion and programming.
It’s crucial that we separate Science and State.
"A cow is also a technology." 😂
Haha
A cow is a natural animal.... not a technology.Of course the get milked using technology.....but that does not mean that it is a technology.
The cow gets milked using technology*
Or use aquaponics systems to save on all the things they said and more. Save up to 95% water and no need for pesticides! No fertilizer run off either meaning lake ecosystems will not have algae blooms that kill off fish and other plants.
Agriculture now green house effect????? Hmmmmmm
AIRPOD SHOTTY!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😫😂😂😂😂😂
With mega droughts in many countries/ mega fires in many countries/ mega floods in many countries & food production that will be non-existent in many areas of the world, how can any government stand by & not assist with harvesting the crops? The world is about to become the scariest it's ever been! Why doesn't the government work with the growers to put people who are on assistance to work harvesting these crops & transport the crops to food banks or homeless shelters?
What is this entity doing to assist growers?
saludos a los del cenei prros
the problem is, is no just the soil....
funny how good farmers owned everything but now they make the least if you remove subsidies.
it is not clear to me why all these laboratories that consume money. And we simply do not grow mushrooms in exchange for meat
Did you help for indians
Someone else can snack on stem cell and insect burgers. I will keep running my grass fed cattle.
The nutrients will be the same. A piece of dead meat is just a piece of dead meat.
@@aaronpetlueng8880 No, your wrong. Grass fed meat is different. Mobile mob grazing sequesters carbon into the ground. Builds up the organic matter. Which filters and holds onto the water. Also recycles nutrients more efficiently.
European bank for reconstruction & development has an article on food for the future. But they do nothing to help find people to harvest food in the UK because of Brexit???? The world is about to become the scariest it's ever been & food shortages will top the list of scarcities, followed by clean drinking water, a place to live (USA), a place to go to the bathroom because of homelessness(USA), how to keep warm this winter due to homelessness (USA). If you don't think that the food shortages around the world will affect your country then you're insane. Not finding a way to get the food harvested will bite us all in the ass!
Agriculture is not the solution, it only brings with it more long term problems. Permaculture is the solution for the world
Low yielding ag systems are not the answer.
This is crap a cow is not wasting anything, as what is not made into beef goes out the rear end as perfect fertiliser for the pastures. The gases are in a neutral system as the pastures take in carbon.
you should have added subtitles in the video
And this is why I'm vegan
Get rid of your (carnivorous) pets too as they are unsustainable & require a large amount of meat production to keep them alive as well.
Think about how much grain & animal products are wasted on worthless dogs, cats, ferrets, foxes & other BS.
Small animals like quail, chickens, rabbits, etc. are good for small farms & are very sustainable with very little input required.
So people don't have to go completely vegan if they don't want to. it's just not very satisfying either, overall compared to adding some animal products that the body needs from time to time.
Human oral microbiome, the bacterials in YOUR mouth, DONT EAT PLANTS, they ONLY EAT MEAT. AGRICULTURE AND VEGANISM ARE UNNATURAL.
Vegans are sick
@@thebeautifulones5436 sounds like you've been chewing on too many murdered corpses
@Karlotta Wurzer Yes animal agriculture is indeed bad for the planet and the creatures, human and non human alike. By going vegan we make this a kinder and much more ethical society!
Sounds like a bunch of wishy washy impractical bs full of jargon. Secondly to achieve 25% of what they are saying would mean corporatization of agriculture where big companies will control it.
The earth has just about reached the limit in population if it is not curbed now in another century mother nature may clean the slate and start over.
From before Malthus and after Erhlich the doomsayers have always been wrong. Regards.
@@DukeGMOLOL That is wonderful but the slate has been cleaned several times in the past we just weren't here.
@@quercus4730 --What were those times please.
@@DukeGMOLOL Take the time to type in mass extinctions of earth.
@@quercus4730 --Your original comment was talking about humans, not dinosaurs. Fears of overpopulation causing a collapse of resources has always turned out to an irrational fear. So please present the cases where "mother nature" cleaned the slate.
Reset before 2050
Recet as in calamity and the deluge?
@@zacharykanebronson2549 exatomundo
@@vanlierdreyer5169 I think and feel the same.
No
recycle waste from community in large areas using black soldier flies, used to feed fish and pets with a high protein and fat content. No reason agriculture should be dying Plastic can be remelted and molded in to reusable objects, metals are recycled and water recycled in these plants. we are becoming lazy in our ways and need to change. stem cells don't sound edible to me, what new problems are we creating with stem cell foods.
ITS NOT AGRICULTURE ! IT IS THE DIGGING THAT IS THE PROBLEM! THE TILLING OF THE SOIL IS THE PROBLEM!
No it's the water usage and loss of habitats
@@shortchanged. hm no. If you don't know what I mean ask instead of budding in! And what loss of habitat? Habitat for whom? The tomatoes???? Think!

our planet is dying and we are allowing it to happen
This is bull.
The Government have noted your anti-Science, anti-Ecoequity disinformation; your ODD has been duly diagnosed, and effective treatment will be provided.
All wrong plz don't grow artificially embrace nature
Embracing nature like commenting on a youtube video? or wearing cotton shirts, or, I would assume, you living in a treated studded dry wall house, drive a car, or eat processed foods? Perhaps no one told you or you haven't figured it out but when nature isn't a beautiful sun set or a birth of a new born, it is a sick, mean, psychopathic ass hole. There's nothing wrong with not depending on nature if you do it right. Nature is not the end all, be all. *Then again... everything we do that is "artificial" is our nature and therefor, natural.*
@@JollywoodJoel Thank you
Instead of all this bullshit the world should focus on Permaculture, Regenerative Agriculture etc and scale operations down, not up.
too disgusting
