This document discusses the transition needed for food systems as global oil production peaks. It outlines several elements of transition, including relocalizing food production and processing, improving soil fertility through techniques like cover cropping and composting, shifting to smaller-scale and more sustainable farming practices, and developing community support for local farmers and seeds. The transition requires a large influx of new farmers and supportive policies around land access, education, financing, and food prices to build a post-carbon food system.
