Dealing with the game-changing technologies of Agriculture 4.0: How do we manage diversity and responsibility in food system transition pathways? (2020, neutral): “The discourse surrounding food security is currently dominated by neo-Malthusian justifications which see a rapidly growing population as the central problem and technology as the solution (see e.g. Royal Society, 2009; FAO, 2019; Hickey et al., 2019).”
Opportunities and challenges of speed breeding: A review (2021, background): “The duration of each crop breeding cycle can be reduced using modern technologies such as doubled haploid breeding (Dwivedi et al., 2015) and speed breeding (Hickey et al., 2019).”
Perceptions of the Fourth Agricultural Revolution: What’s In, What’s Out, and What Consequences are Anticipated? (2020, background): “2019); a rapidly growing global population that is demanding more calories per day (Rockström et al. 2017; Hickey et al. 2019; Miranda et al. 2019) and environmental challenges such as climate change, soil degradation, water pollution, and biodiversity loss”
