Nutrition-driven agriculture emphasizes the production of crops and livestock that improve human health and nutrition. This approach integrates agricultural practices with nutritional science to enhance the nutrient content of food. By focusing on biofortification, where crops are enriched with vitamins and minerals, nutrition-driven agriculture addresses micronutrient deficiencies prevalent in many populations. This strategy not only improves dietary quality but also supports sustainable farming practices that protect the environment. Collaborations between agronomists, nutritionists, and policymakers are essential to create effective programs that promote diverse, nutrient-rich crops tailored to local dietary needs. Ultimately, nutrition-driven agriculture seeks to transform food systems, enhance food security, and improve public health.
