Leveraging Earth Science Data and Analytics in Food Systems - Molly Jahn, University of Wisconsin

Notes: 
- for 150 yr had a stragey in food sytem focused on yield - maximize short term yield
- currently have enough productively to produce enough food for all people and even for 9 billion by 2050. 
-if drive harder, need to address waste and depition.  Agric productive is only 1 part of the system
recommendation 7: Create comprehensive, shared, integrated information system that encompass human and ecological dimensions
Note: expect major spikes in demand - examples to show new demand
Nimble systems to scan integrated information patters for detection and interventsion - need to get to pre-bang.  need for safer space or resiliance
Q - food security and animals - require key definitions - the relationship of food security to health is important
