A green growth strategy for food and agriculture: preliminary report

This preliminary report outlines a broad strategy for green growth in the food and agriculture sector. It is part of the OECD’s Green Growth Strategy that seeks to define an economic development path that is consistent with long-run environmental protection, using natural resources within their carrying capacity, while providing acceptable living standards and poverty reduction in all countries. The need for green growth arises because a business as usual path does not fully account for environmental limits and social concerns.
