- Reasons for recommending:
Food security of China is always a principal problem for China even the whole world. And substantive studies have focused on the topic because of the challenges from loss of cropland, population growth, and water shortages. However, existed studies have generally failed to comprehensively consider future scenarios concluding climate change, land use, socioeconomic and technological scenarios. The paper provided an integrated perspective on China’s food demand and supply in future based on all the data from the aspects of land, population, climate and socioeconomic scenarios. The results provided effective and valuable conclusions for decision making of the government and future researches.
