Our course provides specialist skills and knowledge about the most important issues related to the sustainability of agricultural production and food security. Our MRes is suitable if you have a strong interest in a specific related topic and are confident that you want to pursue a career in research. Sustainable agriculture and food security focuses on the availability of food now and in the future: a major concern of scientific and commercial communities worldwide. The prominence of this subject is driven by an increasing global population, pressure on non-renewable or scarce resources, and a need to increase food production whilst minimizing the impact on the environment. The course covers all aspects of food security as outlined by Global Food Security, a multi-agency program involving the main UK public sector funders of research and training related to food.
