The document discusses the vision and grand challenges of the agri-food community. It identifies three main trends: adopting a systems perspective, new genetic techniques, and digital agriculture. It outlines the food system challenges of feeding 9 billion people while addressing climate change, unhealthy diets, and planetary boundaries. The food system is divided into three components: smart farming and food security, gene-based approaches, and food safety, nutrition and health. Each component lists societal and scientific expectations as well as obstacles to open science approaches. The overall challenges are interconnectedness and developing inclusive, sustainable solutions through increased sharing, connecting and collaborating across the agri-food community.
