The U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (USFRA) has released a short film highlighting agriculture’s role in combatting climate change over the next 30 years.
Erin Fitzgerald, CEO of the alliance, says “30 Harvests” quantifies the crop cycles left before 2050, when the global population is expected to reach 9 billion people.
“By the year 2050 we have to feed 70% more people or as much food as we’ve produced in all of mankind up to this point,” she says.
