The Soil We Live On – Sustainable Use Of Arable Land

Ensuring that there is sufficient arable land for future food and biomass production is a challenge more relevant than ever. But how much land is really needed to secure the future food production? And how can we ensure that the land is sufficient for all our needs, even for future generations?

The global population is increasing and with it our need for both infrastructure and food. Society's measures to adapt to and counteract climate change take up additional land, not least for increased production of biofuels.

During the Sustainability Week in Lund 2021, the thematic collaboration initiative LU Land - Land Use for a Sustainable Future and the Agenda 2030 Graduate School at Lund University jointly invite to two seminars on the subject. The purpose is to highlight the challenges and conflicts that arise related to the sustainable use of arable land, and to discuss possible solution paths with the participants.
