A Catalyst article looking at strategies for ensuring that there is a plentiful food supply in the future and how this can be sustained. The article looks at three main areas for scientific investigation:

• Fertilisation
• Pest control
• Genetic modification

It also looks at balancing the need for more food production to meet estimated world population growth against environmental concerns.

This article is from Catalyst: GCSE Science Review 2010, Volume 20, Issue 4.

Catalyst is a science magazine for students aged 14-19 years. Annual subscriptions to print copies of the magazine can be purchased from Mindsets.
