Our sustainable food systems research aims to tackle the pressing, connected issues of climate change and malnutrition across the lifespan. Our expertise in animal science complements human nutrition expertise, and aligns with international targets for net-zero agriculture. The research is embedded within the Global Food and Environment Institute, where innovative research and education is delivered at the University of Leeds smart farm, which hosts the National Pig Centre (NPC). We are working with academic, industry and policy partners worldwide to co-develop research programmes that address agricultural, climate change and health global challenges.
