sustainable food production

Sažetak
Sustainability became a high priority issue in all areas of interest and activities of the human kind, and growing awareness of environmental issue is affecting our lifestyles. Sustainable development is defined as meeting “the needs of the present generations without compromising the ability of future generations in meeting their needs”. There are several related principles of sustainable food production, but probably the most central, is not to use resources faster than they renew. As food is one of the most important human needs there is a need to pay attention to food production from all aspects among which the most important are food safety or healthy products, high nutritious food (to meet all consumers’ nutritious demands), permanent high standard food supply, reduction in energy consumption, minimizing resource inputs, using renewable energy and packaging materials whenever possible, as well as high standards in working environment and continuous employees’ education. As applied to the food industry it may be said that…”sustainable food system” is one that provides healthy food to meet current food needs while maintaining healthy eco-systems that can also provide food for generations to come with minimal negative impact to the environment.
