Mansholt lecture 2024: Key dilemmas on future land use for agriculture, forestry and nature in the EU

The societal debate on agriculture, food and nature is subject to polarisation, leading to unbridgeable points of view. To find joint solutions, a group of Wageningen researchers identified key dilemmas at the heart of these tensions. During this Mansholt lecture, we will share our latest scientific insights on these dilemmas, to inform and help stakeholders to develop future perspectives.
