Issues are presented according to major factors, such as growing population, changing dietary habits, water efficiency, climate change and volatile food prices. These factors were compiled from reports of major international organizations and from relevant scientific articles on the subject. Collecting the results and presenting them in an accessible manner may provide new insight for interested parties. Accessibility of data is extremely important, since food security and its drivers form a closely interconnected but extremely complex network, which requires coordinated problem solving to resolve issues. According to the results, the demand for growing agricultural products has been partly met by increasing cultivated land in recent decades. At the same time, there is serious competition for existing agricultural areas, which further limits the extension of agricultural land in addition to the natural constraints of land availability. Agricultural production needs to expand faster than population growth without further damage to the environment. The driving force behind development is sustainable intensive farming, which means the more effective utilization of agricultural land and water resources. Current global trends in food consumption are unsustainable, analyzed in terms of either public health, environmental impacts or socio-economic costs. The growing population should strive for sustainable food consumption, as social, environmental and health impacts are very important in this respect as well. To this end, the benefits of consuming foods that are less harmful to the environment during production are also to be emphasized in the scope of consumption policy and education related to nutrition as opposed to other food types, the production of which causes a major demand for raw materials.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/su11205816","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,21]],"date-time":"2019-10-21T03:40:29Z","timestamp":1571629229000},"page":"5816","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":509,"title":["The Challenge of Feeding the World"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"D\u00e1niel","family":"Fr\u00f3na","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Karoly Ihrig Doctoral School of Management and Business, University of Debrecen, 4032 Debrecen, Hungary"},{"name":"Institute of Sectoral Economics and Methodology, University of Debrecen, 4032 Debrecen, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J\u00e1nos","family":"Szender\u00e1k","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Karoly Ihrig Doctoral School of Management and Business, University of Debrecen, 4032 Debrecen, Hungary"},{"name":"Institute of Sectoral Economics and Methodology, University of Debrecen, 4032 Debrecen, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M\u00f3nika","family":"Harangi-R\u00e1kos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sectoral Economics and Methodology, University of Debrecen, 4032 Debrecen, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3632","DOI":"10.1038\/s41467-018-05956-1","article-title":"A global meta-analysis of yield stability in organic and conservation agriculture","volume":"9","author":"Knapp","year":"2018","journal-title":"Nat.
