Breeding resilience in a changing climate (Van Lookeren Campagne, 2020)
"Crop breeding techniques have come a long way in developing plants suited to Australian climates. But how far can we go? Will new technologies and research infrastructure keep pace with the need to make Australian agriculture more agile, more responsive and more resilient to the changes ahead?" (Van Lookeren Campagne, 2020)

Dual-purpose crops bring drought resilience to farming (Koreis, 2020)
"Nick Kershaw is a crop and merino sheep farmer in Greenethorpe, New South Wales. He credits the adoption of dual-purpose crops as providing critical stability to his farm in times of drought. Dual-purpose crops are both grazed by livestock and grown to harvest." (Koreis, 2020)

Is Climate Change a Risk to Global Grazing Lands? (Institute on the Environment, n.d.)

How Does Agriculture Change Our Climate? (Institute for the environment, n.d.)
"Since the start of the Green Revolution, the productivity of the global agricultural system has more than doubled, improving food security for a growing population and meeting dietary demands of an increasingly wealthy world. This astounding productivity has also imposed environmental costs. While global agriculture faces a number of challenges, the most surprising challenge to food security may come from agriculture’s impact on our climate." (Institute for the environment, n.d.)

Climate change is affecting crop yields and reducing global food supplies (Ray, 2019)
"Farmers are used to dealing with weather, but climate change is making it harder by altering temperature and rainfall patterns, as in this year’s unusually cool and wet spring in the central U.S. In a recently published study, I worked with other scientists to see whether climate change was measurably affecting crop productivity and global food security."

Putting Earth First: Eating and Living Green by Megan Kopp
ISBN: 9781427117595
Publication Date: 2016
This inspiring book describes how people are becoming more aware of the effect of their daily activities on the planet. Find out how more and more people are eating and living green by buying food grown locally, eating food that is organic, and even growing their own food. Many people are also building eco-friendly homes and choosing to live off the grid, which means they are creating their own, sustainable forms of energy instead of getting electricity from a power station. Discover how eating and living green is becoming more and more possible, and why this way of living could help build a sustainable future for the next generation.

Feeding a Hungry Nation: Climate change, Food and Farming in Australia by Climate Council [Australia]
ISBN: 9780994419569
Publication Date: 2015
"The price, quality and seasonality of Australia’s food is increasingly being affected by climate change with Australia’s future food security under threat, our new report has revealed. Australia’s food supply chain is highly exposed to disruption from increasing extreme weather events driven by climate change, with farmers already struggling to cope with more frequent and intense droughts and changing weather patterns." (Climate Council, 2015)

Sustainable Futures: Linking Population, Resources and the Environment by Jenny Goldie (Editor); Katharine Betts (Editor)
ISBN: 9781486301904
Publication Date: 2014
Sustainable Futures explores the links between population growth, diminishing resources and environmental challenges, and the implications for Australia's future. Written by leaders in their field, and based on presentations from the 2013 Fenner Conference on 'Population, Resources and Climate Change', this book is a timely insight into the intertwined challenges that we currently face, and what can be done to ensure a sustainable and viable future.The book identifies the major areas of concern for Australia's future, including environmental, social and economic implications of population growth; mineral and natural resources; food, land and water issues; climate change; and the obstacles and opportunities for action.Accessible, informative and authoritative, Sustainable Futures will be of interest to policy makers, students and professionals in the fields of sustainability and population growth.

"some wild cousins of crops have traits and characteristics that their domesticated relatives have lost. Pre-breeders can combine the best features of different potatoes and get those traits back into the cultivated genepool." (Crop Trust, 2019)

"In early May 2017 the Global Alliance for the Future brought together over 250 experts and leaders from the local to the global to gain deeper insights into the connections between climate change and food systems, to craft visions of the food systems we need today and tomorrow, and to chart potential pathways to get there. These are the voices of some of those leaders." (Global Alliance for the Future of Food, 2017)
