By 2050, the world population will exceed
9.3 billion

3. …With Growing Needs
To meet future food demands, we will need to increase
crop production by an estimated
70%...
…while also meeting a growing demand for
greater sustainability in agriculture

4. Why Sustainability in
Agriculture?
• Demand from consumers, governments,
advocacy groups, large corporations
• Finite resources (e.g., crop inputs, land)
• Global needs cannot be met by simply intensifying
current practices
• Environmental and financial benefits of efficient
nutrient use
• Sustainable practices can help growers responsibly
achieve yield gains
