Bottom line: adding more crops to the current dominant rotation of wheat and maize increases yields and profits, sequesters more carbon in the soil and reduces overall greenhouse gas emissions. Not surprisingly, lower nitrogen fertiliser results in lower emissions of nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas. million tonnes.

But the study delves into a more comprehensive analysis, considering factors beyond direct greenhouse gas emissions. We find that pasture-finished operations have 20% higher production emissions and 42% higher carbon footprint than grain-finished systems. Lower yields (but we overproduce meat anyway). The downside?

These synthetic polymer products have often been used to help boost yields up to 60 percent and make water and pesticide use more efficient. But plasticulture, or the use of plastic products in agriculture, also comes with a wide range of known problems. Simply put, “there are no magic solutions,” says Demokritou.

Current food systems are responsible for one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions and for nearly 80 percent of biodiversity loss. In Mexico, climate change has caused a decline in yields—including a 35 percent reduction in the bean crop while increasingly ferocious hurricanes have wiped out fruit crops.
