Soil and agriculture governance and food security

This article explores the various divergences and convergences between the international and national legal approaches, reviews soil and land management law as well as food security and nutrition legal frameworks and concludes with a proposal for a way forward towards a holistic legal framework on agri-food systems that will help ensure food security and nutrition over long term and in a sustainable way, including by taking account of soil health and biodiversity.
