Abstract:
The rate of obesity in the United States has increased to an alarming degree. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provides data on the state-by-state and nationwide obesity rates. Over the last 20 years, the rates have steadily risen. The nationwide obesity rate is approximately 23.6% (all categories combined - age, sex, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status). This study was undertaken to examine the relationships between obesity rates, per capita income, number of the popular fast-food (McDonald's) restaurants, and number of whole foods grocery stores per capita. Data from previous studies regarding the causes of obesity, socioeconomic trends and food selection, state-by state obesity rates, use of federal food assistance programs, and the number of McDonald's restaurants worldwide and nationwide and “Whole Foods” markets is reviewed. Correlation coefficients were computed to determine relationships between 1) state-by-state obesity rates and per capita income, 2) state-by-state obesity rates and McDonald's per capita, 3) state-by-state per capita income and McDonald's per capita, and 4) state-by-state per capita income Whole Foods grocery stores per capita. There was a statistically significant relationship between the obesity rates and number of McDonalds per capita; the 2 were positively correlated (r=0.27; p < 0.05), meaning that there were more McDonald's in the states with higher obesity rates. There was a statistically significant (negative correlation between per capita income and obesity rates(r = -0.49, p < 0.05). There was no significant correlation between McDonald's restaurants per capita and per capita income (r= -01213, p=0.40). There was a significant, positive correlation between the number of “Whole Foods” grocery stores (r = 0.576, p< 0.01) and per capita income. Results of this study indicate that income, and access to fast food restaurants and whole foods markets have some influence over obesity rates.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article illuminates the geographic concept of ‘place’ in local foods. Because the social aspects of local food have been more fully addressed in previous literature, this review focuses instead on the ecological aspects of farming and food. First, the literature on natural resource use in agriculture provides contextual understanding of water use, biodiversity, soils and agro-ecological methods. The complex relationship between climate change and agriculture is described and models assessing the impacts of climate change on agriculture are detailed. The geography of local food is specifically addressed by describing methods for assessing natural resource use in local food, including food miles, consumer transportation, scale and community, agricultural methods and diet. Finally, future research paths are suggested to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the environmental impact of local food. Such research would encompass the geography of local food through development of broader, more inclusive strategy, including the concept of the ‘ecological appetite’ of crops and foods, the union of both social and ecological aspects of resource use, the linkages between rural and urban producers and consumers and the inclusion of farmers’ ecological knowledge. Overall, the geography of local food seeks to assess the where of food production and consumption, while incorporating key issues of how (agro-ecological methods benefiting the community) and what (locally appropriate crops).

Abstract:
Global concerns such as climate change and food security have focused renewed attention on the future of rural space. Although the direct engagement of rural geographers with climate change and food security has been limited to date, recent research in rural geography holds a number of lessons on these issues, highlighting, for example, spatial and social differentiation in the development of alternative food networks and the challenge of contested discourses of rurality to technocratic solutions to both food security and climate change. Through such perspectives, rural geography has a strong and distinctive contribution to make to research on both issues.

Abstract:
Radical geographies scholarship has evolved over the past decades in pursuit of transforming spatial, political-economic, social, and ecological engagements within oppressive structures. Similarly, food systems scholarship demonstrates increasing interest in the scalar, sociopolitical, and ecological dynamics of food systems, often with an applied or action-oriented focus. Building on these connected, yet divergent, traditions of scholarship and action, we propose a radical food geography praxis that is rooted in the intersections of active resistance to structures that (re)produce power inequity and oppression in food systems in specific places and across spaces, and an ongoing process of critical and theoretical reflection about these structures and geographies. The radical food geography praxis we propose consists of three primary and interconnected elements: (1) theoretical engagements with power and structures of oppression both inside and outside the academy; (2) action through academic, social movement, and civil society collaborations; and (3) analysis through a broadly defined geographic lens. Through bringing together radical geographies and food systems scholarship, a radical food geography praxis reveals the interconnectivity between places and movements, relationality between land and people, the flows of people, environmental resources, ideas, and culture, and the diverse approaches to achieving justice-oriented objectives. In order to build more equitable and sustainable food systems, it is essential to engage with these geographic realities in deeply theoretical and action-oriented ways.

Abstract:
Radical geography research, teaching, and action have increasingly focused on food systems, examining the scalar, sociopolitical, and ecological dynamics of food production and harvesting, processing, distribution, consumption, and waste. While academics have contributed significantly to these debates, the success and progress of this scholarship cannot be separated from the work of practitioners and activists involved in food justice and food sovereignty movements. This paper draws together the voices of scholars and activists to explore how collaborations can productively build the evolving field of radical food geography and contribute to more equitable and sustainable food systems for all. These perspectives provide important insight but also push the boundaries of what is typically considered scholarship and the potential for impacts at the levels of theory and practice. Reflecting on the intersecting fields of radical geography and food studies scholarship and the contributions from the scholar-activists, the authors share a collective analysis through a discussion of the following three emerging themes of radical food geography: (1) a focus on historical and structural forces along with flows of power; (2) the importance of space and place in work on food justice and food sovereignty; and (3) a call to action for scholars to engage more deeply with radical food systems change within their research and teaching process but also in response to it.

We believe we understand food deserts, but we do not. In the last decade the phenomenon of food deserts has been often discussed, and many solutions are proposed to alleviate food access issues in American cities. However, I argue that the efficacy of these solutions is questionable until the causes of urban food deserts are better understood. Beyond the economics of retail grocery exist systemic, physical factors which contribute to the gaps in food access. Although grocery retailers have different models and consider varying factors when choosing where to locate, it is true that the built environment plays a part in whether a city is hospitable or hostile to grocery stores, especially of the types that sell healthy, fresh food.

Full text
Abstract:
The spatial patterns of the conventional food supply chain have played a significant role in increasing the amount of miles food travels before being consumed. As a result, this has increased the amount of energy that is required to transport food from the farm to the table. The food supply chain links production to consumption. However, as food-miles increase, this link becomes obscure. The food supply chain can be described as having two very distinct parts: the conventional food supply chain and the alternative food supply chain. Business consolidation, and large-scale production, processing, distribution and retail characterize the conventional food supply chain. As a result of such economies of scale, the conventional chain is also characterized by standardization of knowledge. The alternative chain, on the other hand, is characterized by direct sales, small-scale production, processing and distribution and by a more transparent market. Certified organic foods began as an alternative to conventional foods. However, certified organic foods have increasingly been criticized for adopting similar business practices as the conventional system and thus travel the same lengths, if not further, than conventional foods. This study is a place-based approach that compares the food-miles and subsequent energy use of the two food supply chainsconventional and alternativethat provide food to retail grocery stores in Missoula, Montana. Energy use is estimated in gallons of diesel and the subsequent byproduct, or emissions, of transportation is estimated in pounds of carbon dioxide. Four of the highest selling retail grocery products; apples, bread, ground beef and milk, are classified into three different categories: conventional, non-local organic and other-alternative. The food-miles, subsequent fuel usage and emissions are also estimated for each of the four products. The study shows a remarkable lack of transparency in the conventional food supply chain and relatively low food-miles, fuel use and carbon dioxide emissions for the other-alternative products.

Full text
Abstract:
Despite a sustained academic interest in food environments and their impact upon dietary practices, relatively little is known about the ways in which individuals interact with the food environment. The multiple and complex factors that influence food choices are difficult to investigate, especially in the family setting where individual and collective practices intersect. This thesis investigates how people perform food practices and unpacks how specific contexts shape, promote and constrain food behaviours. The case study through which this is examined is that of the food practices of 26 residents of Sandwell, a uniformly deprived metropolitan borough in the West Midlands. Through ethnographically collecting accounts and observations of how residents performed food practices, both in the home and while shopping for food, highly routinized behaviours were revealed. The notion of routinized decision making, as it appears in social science research, is developed and adapted to incorporate descriptions of general approaches to routine food behaviours. The novel concept of routines-of-practice is employed to characterise these routines in terms of agency, attitudes towards individualism, and reliance on environmental and contextual cues. Food shopping practices are positioned, to an extent, as acts of consumerism performed in the pervasive consumption environment of the supermarket. The home, by contrast, was depicted as a site of both privacy and responsibility. The ways in which responsibility was interpreted and enacted dictated how family meals and routine home food behaviours were structured. By looking at food practices in terms of repetitive, context specific and often uncritical behaviours, this thesis highlights the importance of place in moulding food practices. Understanding how people interact and interpret their environment has been underestimated in diet-related health policy and promotion. This thesis specifically examines the way food practices are influenced by environment and context at the micro level.

Abstract:
This research explores the social life of street food in Hanoi, Vietnam, using a conceptual framework of social sustainability. Although the economic benefits of street vending are widely recognised, little attention has previously been paid to the social aspects. Focusing specifically on the selling of street food through the lens of social sustainability, this research develops a conceptual framework from the literature. The framework comprised eight key themes: social justice, quality of life and well-being, participation, safety and security, social interactions and social networks, social inclusion, sense of place and cultural heritage and was applied empirically to the street food environment of Hanoi. The themes used in the framework were identified as the most pertinent in the literature and were grouped under three broad ideas – social justice, social relations and culture – and used to frame the thesis. The application of the social sustainability framework revealed important details about the social life and social function of the street food environment. It highlighted key areas where street food in Hanoi can be shown to contribute to the principles of social sustainability, such as regarding social relations, cultural heritage and sense of place. It also drew attention to areas that require improvement, including some aspects of social justice, for example, participation, safety and security and food hygiene. The findings of this research suggest the challenges identified that prevent the social sustainability of street food in Hanoi, often manifested themselves through the inequalities experienced between the different types of street food vendors, specifically itinerant or migrant vendors compared to local vendors with fixed selling locations. The thesis argues that the approach adopted in the research offers a useful tool for understanding the social functions of street vending which can be applied and adapted to examine the social sustainability of street food vending in other economic and political contexts.

Watson, David. "Well-being in community food organisations : responding to alienation in the food system." Thesis, University of Essex, 2017. http://repository.essex.ac.uk/19118/.

Full text
Abstract:
Community food organisations are part of a growing interest in local and alternative forms of food, which have widely been understood as a response to the failings of the dominant food system. Despite significant academic interest, few studies have sought to understand these alternatives from the perspective of well-being, although they are grounded in claims for a better food system. In this thesis I address this gap. In order to do so I draw on Marx’s concept of alienation as the basis for understanding how well-being is constituted in four community food organisations in the East of England. In using a Marxist approach to well-being I seek to overcome the limitations of narrow, individualised conceptions of well-being that have predominated a resurgent discourse around well-being. Renewed interest in well-being and alternative food systems can be seen as reactions to the dominant logic of capital, which has prioritised economic growth and profit at the expense of human and planetary well-being. However, these potentially critical discourses have proved vulnerable to re-absorption by capital. I use Marx’s concept of alienation to bring together critique of capitalism with an understanding of community food organisations as alternative spaces of production, which enhance well-being. Both classical and recent Marxian approaches have tended to emphasize critique, with little attention to the subjective experience of capitalism or alternatives to it. Drawing on alienation to inform a Marxian approach to well-being I unite structural critique with subjective experience. I use ethnographic and qualitative methods to document participation in community food organisations as an alternative, de-alienated experience. The data generated points to the important role these spaces can play in supporting well-being. It underlines how they facilitate social interaction, an active relationship with nature, and provide an opportunity for participants to realise a sense of agency and engage in meaningful work.

Abstract:
Arctic climate change is an influential food security determinant because varying environmental conditions affect the ability of Inuit to harvest traditional food, thus impacting food security. This case study assesses how climatic extremes during winter 2010/2011 affected the vulnerability of the traditional food system in Iqaluit, Nunavut. This winter was statistically anomalous in terms of environmental conditions throughout the Canadian Arctic, which manifested locally via warmer temperatures and poorer sea ice conditions. The aim of this thesis is to determine whether these conditions impacted the procurement of traditional food and whether this caused food insecurity amongst vulnerable residents at the community level. The main objective is to identify and characterize locally relevant extreme climatic conditions during winter 2010/2011 (exposure), their subsequent effects on Iqaluit's traditional food system with a focus on public housing residents (sensitivity) and coping strategies used for dealing with food-related stresses (adaptive capacity). This mixed-methods approach involves analysis of instrumental records, interviews with local hunters and key informants, as well as surveys with public housing residents. Results show increased environmental stresses to the traditional food system compared to previous years, which negatively impacted hunters' harvests and residents' food supplies. Coping strategies alleviated some stresses, but resilience was particularly impeded for financially insecure households reliant on income support. Overall, the traditional food system was not as vulnerable to climatic extremes as anticipated, as broader social determinants had a greater influence on Inuit food security. However, when poor socioeconomic conditions, such as those associated with public housing, are coupled with poor environmental conditions, such as those experienced during winter 2010/2011, the vulnerability of the traditional food system is even further exacerbated.
Le changement climatique dans l'Arctique est un facteur déterminant de la sécurité alimentaire des Inuits. En effet, il affecte leur capacité à se procurer les nourritures traditionnelles, fragilisant ainsi leur sécurité alimentaire. Cette étude de cas évalue dans quelle mesure les conditions climatiques changeantes durant l'hiver 2010/2011 ont affecté la vulnérabilité du système alimentaire traditionnel à Iqaluit, Nunavut. Selon les statistiques, les conditions environnementales de cet hiver ont été anormales à travers l'ensemble de l'Arctique Canadien, ce qui, à l'échelle locale, s'est traduit par des températures plus chaudes et de mauvaises conditions des glaces. Le but de cette thèse est de déterminer si ces conditions climatiques ont affectés la récolte de nourritures traditionnelles, à l'échelle de la communauté, et si cela a causé de l'insécurité alimentaire chez les résidents les plus vulnérables. L'objectif principal est d'identifier et de caractériser les conditions climatiques extrêmes à l'échelle locale durant l'hiver 2010/2011 (exposition), leurs conséquences sur le système alimentaire traditionnel d'Iqaluit avec une attention particulière aux résidents de logements publics (sensibilité) et aux stratégies d'adaptation utilisées pour faire face aux contraintes alimentaires (capacité d'adaptation). Cette méthodologie mixte de recherche implique l'analyse des données climatiques, des entrevues avec des chasseurs locaux et des informateurs clés, de même que des sondages avec des résidents des logements publics. Comparativement aux années précédentes, les résultats montrent un accroissement des pressions sur le système alimentaire traditionnel, ce qui affecte négativement la récolte des chasseurs et l'approvisionnement des résidents. Bien que les stratégies d'adaptation atténuent certaines de ces contraintes, la capacité de résilience des ménages financièrement précaires, qui dépendent d'un soutien au revenu, a été particulièrement affectée. De manière générale, le système alimentaire traditionnel n'a pas été aussi vulnérable aux conditions climatiques extrêmes qu'anticipées, cela en raison de conditions socio-économiques plus larges qui ont eu une plus grande influence sur la sécurité alimentaire des Inuits. Toutefois, lorsque des conditions économiques précaires, notamment celles associées au logement public, sont jumelées avec de mauvaises conditions climatiques, comme celles vécues durant l'hiver 2010/2011, la vulnérabilité du système alimentaire traditionnel est exacerbée.

Full text
Abstract:
Research has shown that the suburbanization of supermarkets has created `food deserts', defined as areas where socially disadvantaged individuals lack access to nutritious food outlets. Additionally, the growing presence of fast-food restaurants has created `food swamps', or areas where socially disadvantaged individuals encounter an overabundance of unhealthy food outlets. While previous studies have analyzed either `food deserts' or `food swamps' using conventional statistical techniques, a more comprehensive approach that includes samples of both healthy and unhealthy entities and considers the variety of available food options is necessary to improve our understanding of the local food environment and related disparities. This thesis addresses several limitations associated with previous geographic research on the built food environment through a case study that examines socio-demographic inequities in access to supermarkets and fast-food restaurants in Hillsborough County, Florida-- an urban area that has been severely affected by the obesity and food crisis plaguing the nation. An important goal is to examine the spatial and statistical association between socioeconomic deprivation and potential access to all supermarkets, healthiest supermarkets, all fast-food restaurants, and unhealthiest fast-food restaurants, respectively. This study utilizes precise locations of food retailers based on government codes, U.S. Census data, GIS-based network analysis, and a combination of conventional statistical measures and exploratory spatial analytical techniques. Specifically, local indicators of spatial association (LISA) are used to visualize how the relationship between socioeconomic deprivation and accessibility to food outlets varies geographically within the county, and identify the locations of food deserts and food swamps based on the statistical significance of spatial correlations. Conventional statistical measures indicate that socioeconomically deprived neighborhoods are significantly less accessible to the healthiest supermarkets and more accessible to all fast-food restaurants. LISA significance maps reveal that food deserts are located in suburban and rural regions, food swamps are located closer to the urban center, and both are found along major highways in Hillsborough County. Logistic regression results show that race and ethnicity play an undeniably pervasive role in explaining the presence and location of both food deserts and food swamps. This research demonstrates the need to explore local variations in statistical relationships relevant to the study of the built food environment, and highlights the need to consider both healthy and unhealthy food outlets in geographic research and public policy initiatives that aim to address the obesity crisis.

Abstract:
A precise calculation of the environmental burden of food products is a prerequisite for creating food eco-labeling as a strategy for environmental impact mitigation. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is widely used for this purpose, and proxy data is traditionally used due to the shortage of data. Uncertainties are introduced in this process since food products contain a variety of origins. In this study, data from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is used to examine the temporal and geographic variability of the global warming potential (GWP) of seven kinds of field crops. Artificial neural network (ANN) models are then used to predict the GWP of these products at both product and category levels based on temporal and spatial variables such as soil properties, climate, latitude and elevation. The results show that temporally, a monotonic GWP trend was found in corn, soybean and winter wheat. The average geographic variability is more than 27% and is larger than temporal variability. ANN was proven to be a good prediction tool at the product level, with a coefficient of correlation (CC) of at least 0.78 in the simplest model and higher CCs when the number of neurons increases. Predictions with ANN at the category level shows that the selected variables cannot fully encompass all temporal and geographical variability.

Abstract:
"Traceability represents a major concern in supply chains of perishable products. Progress enables complex and integrated monitoring systems based on Internet of Things (IoT), continuous monitoring and real-time alerting. However, the adoption rate of these innovations is not fast enough due to the need of expensive equipment and a robust digital infrastructure. The use of inappropriate technology and the lack of standardization between different monitoring systems often causes data leakage during storage and transportation. The lack of a standard in the traceability tools also causes difficulties in merging the output preventing the formation of a seamless cold chain. This paper presents a decision support tool that helps practitioners to track and trace the perishable products at each stage of the supply chain. The tool gathers data from multiple sources with different data structures, merge the files and fill missing data with the aid of a routing tool and weather forecasting databases. The output of this tool is a unique file containing all the traceability data about the product during its life-cycle. The tool also visualizes the traceability data through the use of a Geographic Information System (GIS) based on OpenStreetMap."

The diversity of ecological niches of larks in the conditions of arid agricultural and pasture lands of Central Kazakhstan was studied. An analysis of the characteristics of the beak, tarsus, and fingers demonstrates the adaptive adaptations of different species of larks for the extraction of certain food objects and nesting in the grass of a certain height. The main trends in the formation of steppe communities with the participation of various species of larks in the conditions of arid fallow and pasture lands of Central Kazakhstan are considered. The role of the main agricultural gradients in the formation of such steppe communities is emphasized.

Abstract:
The conditions and characteristics of the nutrition of the golden bee-eater Meropsapiaster Linnaeus, 1758 (Coraciiformes, Meropidae) were studied in the conditions of forest-steppe landscapes of the Ulyanovsk region (Middle Volga region) during 2007–2019. The choice and preferences of the nest-suitable biotopes of the golden bee-eater are determined by the mechanical and geochemical composition of the soil - burrowing birds and sclerophiles, which include the golden-bee-eater, prefer dense and rather heavy soil for establishing nesting holes in the forest-steppe landscapes of the Ulyanovsk Region. Analysis of feed objects indicates, on the one hand, the low specificity of their choice, and on the other hand, the pronounced features of eating behavior and the choice of insect prey, which will ultimately determine the food preferences of birds.

Hutchinson, M. L., J. E. L. Corry, and R. H. Madden. A review of the impact of food processing on antimicrobial-resistant bacteria in secondary processed meats and meat products. Food Standards Agency, October 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.46756/sci.fsa.bxn990.

Full text
Abstract:
For meat and meat products, secondary processes are those that relate to the downstream of the primary chilling of carcasses. Secondary processes include maturation chilling, deboning, portioning, mincing and other operations such as thermal processing (cooking) that create fresh meat, meat preparations and ready-to-eat meat products. This review systematically identified and summarised information relating to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) during the manufacture of secondary processed meatand meat products (SPMMP). Systematic searching of eight literature databases was undertaken and the resultantpapers were appraised for relevance to AMR and SPMMP. Consideration was made that the appraisal scores, undertaken by different reviewers, were consistent. Appraisal reduced the 11,000 initially identified documents to 74, which indicated that literature relating to AMR and SPMMP was not plentiful. A wide range of laboratory methods and breakpoint values (i.e. the concentration of antimicrobial used to assess sensitivity, tolerance or resistance) were used for the isolation of AMR bacteria.The identified papers provided evidence that AMR bacteria could be routinely isolated from SPMMP. There was no evidence that either confirmed or refuted that genetic materials capable of increasing AMR in non-AMR bacteria were present unprotected (i.e. outside of a cell or a capsid) in SPMMP. Statistical analyses were not straightforward because different authors used different laboratory methodologies.However, analyses using antibiotic organised into broadly-related groups indicated that Enterobacteriaceaeresistant to third generation cephalosporins might be an area of upcoming concern in SPMMP. The effective treatment of patients infected with Enterobacteriaceaeresistant to cephalosporins are a known clinical issue. No AMR associations with geography were observed and most of the publications identified tended to be from Europe and the far east.AMR Listeria monocytogenes and lactic acid bacteria could be tolerant to cleaning and disinfection in secondary processing environments. The basis of the tolerance could be genetic (e.g. efflux pumps) or environmental (e.g. biofilm growth). Persistent, plant resident, AMR L. monocytogenes were shown by one study to be the source of final product contamination. 4 AMR genes can be present in bacterial cultures used for the manufacture of fermented SPMMP. Furthermore, there was broad evidence that AMR loci could be transferred during meat fermentation, with refrigeration temperatures curtailing transfer rates. Given the potential for AMR transfer, it may be prudent to advise food business operators (FBOs) to use fermentation starter cultures that are AMR-free or not contained within easily mobilisable genetic elements. Thermal processing was seen to be the only secondary processing stage that served as a critical control point for numbers of AMR bacteria. There were significant linkages between some AMR genes in Salmonella. Quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) resistance genes were associated with copper, tetracycline and sulphonamide resistance by virtue of co-location on the same plasmid. No evidence was found that either supported or refuted that there was any association between AMR genes and genes that encoded an altered stress response or enhanced the survival of AMR bacteria exposed to harmful environmental conditions.

Abstract:
Citizen science and food is part of a new programme of work to explore how we can involve the communities we serve when building the evidence-base on which policy decisions are made. Citizen science is an approach that can provide high volumes of data with a wide geographic spread. It is relatively quick to deploy and allows access to evidence we would ordinarily have difficulty collating. This methodology has been endorsed by the European Commission for Research, Science and Innovation. There is no one size fits all definition, but citizen science projects involves engaging with communities and asking them to be part of the project, either through engaging them in data collection or through other ways of co-creation. For participants, citizen science offers learning opportunities, the satisfaction of contributing to scientific evidence and the potential to influence policy. It can also give us data which is high in volume, has wide geographical spread, is relatively quick to deploy and that we couldn’t access any other way. Projects using these methods often involve engaging with communities and asking them to be part of the project. This can be either through working with them in data collection, or through co-creation. This report demonstrates that the research community are already undertaking numerous pieces of research that align with FSA’s evidence needs. This includes examples from the UK and other global communities. Participants in such research have collected data on topics ranging from food preparation in the home to levels of chemical contaminant in foods. The findings of this report outline that citizen science could allow the FSA to target and facilitate more systematic engagement with UK and global research communities, to help address key research priorities of the FSA.

Full text
Abstract:
A systematic approach to tree planting and management globally is hindered by the limited synthesis of information sources on tree uses and species priorities. To help address this, the authors ‘mined’ information from 23 online global and regional databases to assemble a list of the most frequent tree species deemed useful for planting according to database mentions, with a focus on tropical regions. Using a simple vote count approach for ranking species, we obtained a shortlist of 100 trees mentioned in at least 10 of our data sources (the ‘top-100’ species). A longer list of 830 trees that were mentioned at least five times was also compiled. Our ‘top-100’ list indicated that the family Fabaceae (syn. Leguminosae) was most common. The information associated with our mined data sources indicated that the ‘top-100’ list consisted of a complementary group of species of differing uses. These included the following: for wood (mostly for timber) and fuel production, human nutrition, animal fodder supply, and environmental service provision (varied services). Of these uses, wood was most frequently specified, with fuel and food use also highly important. Many of the ‘top-100’ species were assigned multiple uses. The majority of the ‘top-100’ species had weediness characteristics according to ‘attribute’ invasiveness databases that were also reviewed, thereby demonstrating potential environmental concerns associated with tree planting that need to be balanced against environmental and livelihood benefits. Less than half of the ‘top-100’ species were included in the OECD Scheme for the Certification of Forest Reproductive Material, thus supporting a view that lack of germplasm access is a common concern for trees. A comparison of the ‘top-100’ species with regionally-defined tree inventories indicated their diverse continental origins, as would be anticipated from a global analysis. However, compared to baseline expectations, some geographic regions were better represented than others. Our analysis assists in priority-setting for research and serves as a guide to practical tree planting initiatives. We stress that this ‘top-100’ list does not necessarily represent tree priorities for the future, but provides a starting point for also addressing representation gaps. Indeed, our primary concern going forward is with the latter.
