- 🥣 Half of 🇮🇳India can’t afford a healthy meal. 🛑 Industrial farming is failing – degrading soils, draining water, & deepening inequality. 🌾 But #agroecology offers a better path. 📅 Join the webinar: 9 Feb 🔗 swissaid.ch/en/articles/... #FoodSystems #India #RightToFood

- Reposted by IPES-FoodProperty controls are yet another way that grocery chains exert their market power in ways that raise prices and undercut people's agency and choice in food systems. @keldonb.bsky.social @clairek.bsky.social See link in comments for recent analysis on same... www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
- New findings from @greenpeace.eu show how the EU's Common Agricultural Policy #CAP is subsidising the rich - disproportionately benefiting a tiny fraction of rich landowners & ag industrialists - instead of the small agroecological farms who need it.

- Reposted by IPES-FoodWhy do a handful of global firms dominate farming and what can we do about it? Critical Takes talks to @jennifer-clapp.bsky.social about the problem of Big Agriculture, the spread of "digital farming" and why we need a new model for growing our food.

- 🌍 #Climate breakdown is already disrupting food production. 📉 Yields are falling. Key crops could soon plateau, then decline. Monocultures leave us exposed. We need deep agro-diversity – in seeds, crops & landscapes – to adapt & build resilient #foodsystems. 📊 www.theguardian.com/environment/...
- IPES-Food is heading to the @orfc.bsky.social #ORFC2026 as an official programme partner. We’re organising sessions on trade wars & food prices, climate justice, #foodsystem plastics, agtech & #agroecology, and corporate concentration. Join us in Oxford or online. 👉 ipes-food.org/oxford-real-...

- 💥When #FoodPrices rise, so does inequality. New research shows price spikes in essentials hit the poorest hardest – while the rich barely feel it. “It’s a massive redistribution shock.” Food price stabilisation - not interest rate hikes - is essential. 👇 scholarworks.umass.edu/entities/pub...

- 🌍 Industrial food production is fuelling climate chaos & ecological collapse – undermining the future of #food. Climate shocks are already pushing food prices up. It doesn’t have to be this way. 🌱 #Agroecology builds resilience & protects the planet. #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness #EUAgriFoodDays
- Can't wait to be there! #ORFC2026
- Market concentration in #foodsystems is deepening, with serious consequences for farmers, consumers & food access. #BigAg monopolies drive up costs, limit choice, weaken farmer autonomy, & leave food systems exposed to shocks. Break them up. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness

- Young people want to farm. But they can't afford to access land. If we don’t support a new generation of small- and medium-scale farmers, we risk food grown by fewer and bigger operators, and countryside hollowed out by #BigAg. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness
- We'll be there! #ORFC26

- Reposted by IPES-FoodDeere sales are down as the farmers feel the pain of Trump's tariffs and stop buying new machines. This kind of pattern of the big companies seeing sales drop in agricultural bust times is longstanding and often leads to pressures from shareholders for consolidation. www.ft.com/content/523a...
- Reposted by IPES-FoodClimate backsliding in action: “EU officials have agreed to limit the scope of the bloc’s contested supply chain law, vastly reducing the number of companies that have to comply and removing a clause requiring businesses to make climate transition plans.” www.ft.com/content/b33b...
- Big agribusiness diverts the majority of cropland to feed not people - but *factory farms*. 🤔While claiming to be the solution to hunger. It's called HUNGER WASHING (ht @thinink.bsky.social). 🌱Let's feed people, not factory farms! #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness

- 🌱 Who controls the future of seeds? At #ITPGRFA talks in Lima, the inclusion of Digital Sequence Information (DSI) is a flashpoint. 🚨Without it, seed companies could patent farmers’ seeds as private data: no consent, no benefit sharing. 📢Bring DSI under the Treaty. 👉 twn.my/title2/biotk...
