Rethinking Agricultural Trade Relationships in an Era of Globalization (2015, background): “Similar applications have also focused on the cropland area required to produce exports (Qiang et al. 2013, Kastner et al. 2014a) and the impact of trade on nutrient cycles resulting from fertilizer use (Schipanski and Bennett 2012, Lassaletta et al. 2014).”
The Global Food‐Energy‐Water Nexus (2018, background): “One of the fastest growing components of global agricultural trade has been trade in livestock feed (Lassaletta et al., 2014), which has tripled since the mid-1980s (Figure 19) and accounts for roughly 7.6% of the global land area used for livestock production (Davis, Yu, Herrero, et al., 2015).”
The limits of transport decarbonization under the current growth paradigm (2020, background): “It is also a key sector, essential for powering trade and most industrial processes and services, including industrial agriculture for food production [7].”
