These innovations range from food production, land use and emissions, all the way to improved diets and waste management. Here, we identify these technologies, assess their readiness and propose eight action points that could accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable food system. We argue that the speed of innovation could be significantly increased with the appropriate incentives, regulations and social licence. These, in turn, require constructive stakeholder dialogue and clear transition pathways. aFood and nutrition programs aFood consumption aFood industry aFood service aHuman nutrition aLand use aAgricultura de Precisão aInovação aNutrição Humana aSistema de Alimentação aTecnologia da Informação aUso da Terra1 aTHORNTON, P.
