The food industry is the largest sector of our economy; food touches everything from our health to the environment, climate change, economic inequality, and the federal budget. From the earliest developments of agriculture, a major goal has been to attain sufficient foods that provide the energy and the nutrients needed for a healthy, active life. Over time, food production, processing, marketing, and consumption have evolved and become highly complex. The challenges of improving the food system in the 21st century will require systemic approaches that take full account of social, economic, ecological, and evolutionary factors. Policy or business interventions involving a segment of the food system often have consequences beyond the original issue the intervention was meant to address. A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System develops an analytical framework for assessing effects associated with the ways in which food is grown, processed, distributed, marketed, retailed, and consumed in the United States. The framework will allow users to recognize effects across the full food system, consider all domains and dimensions of effects, account for systems dynamics and complexities, and choose appropriate methods for analysis. This report provides example applications of the framework based on complex questions that are currently under debate: consumption of a healthy and safe diet, food security, animal welfare, and preserving the environment and its resources. A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System describes the U.S. food system and provides a brief history of its evolution into the current system. This report identifies some of the real and potential implications of the current system in terms of its health, environmental, and socioeconomic effects along with a sense for the complexities of the system, potential metrics, and some of the data needs that are required to assess the effects. The overview of the food system and the framework described in this report will be an essential resource for decision makers, researchers, and others to examine the possible impacts of alternative policies or agricultural or food processing practices."--Publisher's description. 606 $aFood supply$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aFood supply$zUnited States 606 $aPublic health$zUnited States 606 $aFood$xEnvironmental aspects$zUnited States 615 0$aFood supply$xGovernment policy 615 0$aFood supply 615 0$aPublic health 615 0$aFood$xEnvironmental aspects 676 $a363.80973 702 $aNesheim$b Malden C. 702 $aOria$b Maria 702 $aYih$b Peggy Tsai 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Agriculture and Natural Resources, 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bFood and Nutrition Board, 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bCommittee on a Framework for Assessing the Health, Environmental, and Social Effects of the Food System, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797366503321 996 $aA framework for assessing the effects of the food system$93725555 997 $aUNINA
