John Porter will present some analyses of the food system of capital cities as well as an overview of the AR5 IPCC chapter on food security and food production systems that he led recently. He will also present some new ideas on developing ideal cropping systems, based on the earlier concept of crop ideotypes.

The talk will be 30-45 minutes, followed by a Q&A session and then a short wine reception.

Everyone welcome.
