粮食系统方法越来越多地用于更好地理解饮食、可持续资源利用和社会包容方面的转变。此外，粮食系统框架也被广泛用于最近的许多政策和展望研究。我们评估了32项被高度引用的国际研究，确定和比较了用于食品系统分析的框架中的差异，以及确定食品系统转型战略和绩效的程序中的差异。我们表明，现有的粮食系统分析的相关性，以确定关键的权衡和理解相关的政策和实践，以实现协同作用仍然有限。虽然许多研究主要是描述性的，但有些研究提供了更实际的见解和证据，说明粮食系统转型的切入点以及改善粮食系统多方面成果的机会（即营养和健康、环境可持续性和复原力、社会包容）。我们区分了四种不同的粮食系统转型途径，并概述了他们的分析基础，他们对多利益相关者治理的看法，以及他们如何处理多个粮食系统目标之间的关键权衡。我们的结论是，粮食系统的方法必须是有用的决策者和性能只能得到改善，如果决策者有更好地了解这些潜在的相互作用和动态的粮食系统变化。
Food systems approaches are increasingly used to better understand transitions in diets, sustainable resource use and social inclusion. Moreover, food systems frameworks are also widely used in many recent policy and foresight studies. We assess 32 highly-cited international studies, identifying and comparing differences in the frameworks used for food systems analysis, and discrepancies in the procedures to identify strategies for and performances of food system transformation. We show that the relevance of existing food systems analysis for identifying critical trade-offs and understanding relevant policies and practices for achieving synergies remains limited. While many studies are largely descriptive, some offer more practical insights into and evidence of entry points for food system transformation as well as opportunities for improving multiple food system outcomes (i.e. nutrition and health, environmental sustainability and resilience, social inclusion). We distinguish four different pathways for food system transformation and outline their analytical underpinnings, their views on multi-stakeholder governance, and how they deal with critical trade-offs between multiple food system objectives. We conclude that food systems approaches must be useful to decision makers and performance can only be improved if decision makers have a better understanding of these underlying interactions and dynamics of food systems change.
