7. Comprehensive, shared, integrated information systems
Create comprehensive, shared, integrated information systems that encompass human and ecological dimensions.
 
=> Sustain and increase investment in regular monitoring, on the ground and by public domain remote sensing networks, to track changes in land use, food production, climate, the environment, human health and well-being worldwide.

=> Support improved transparency and access to information in global food markets and invest in interlinked information systems with common protocols that build on existing institutions.

=> Develop, validate and implement spatially explicit data and decision-support systems that integrate biophysical and socioeconomic information and that enable policy makers to navigate trade-offs among agricultural intensification, nutritional security and environmental consequences. Policy makers need better tools and data for analysing options and trade-offs
 
Only by implementing real changes across the global food system will we be able to achieve food security and a stable climate for the long term. This will require a break from business as usual and a significant shared commitment by policy makers, investors, agricultural producers, consumers, food companies and researchers.
