Abstract: Good health requires food of good quality. Access to optimal nutrition and health is a fundamental human right. It is for everyone, rich and poor, young and old etc. Malnutrition is still common, and one in seven humans are malnourished because of poverty in the world. Malnutrition is a gigantic societal issue. Malnutrition is related with what we choose produce, how we produce it, and whether and how we make it available to us all. Farmers, industrial agriculture and food processing and distribution profoundly affect ecosystem, climate, moreover they are major factors in our economical and financial system. These players also directly determine the quality of the dietary options available. The path set down for world agriculture into the 21st century was defined barely a decade ago, but we already need further change before the millennium to avert global food system failures. This has much to do with the impact of the green revolution and its perceived inadequacies. We have to address the environmental concerns about modern, technological agriculture, but it is a growing evidence that our global food systems are failing to deliver adequate quantities of healthy, nutritionally balanced food especially to underprivileged people globally. The consequences are affecting human health, well being, productivity, livelihood and stagnating national development efforts in many developing nations. We acknowledge the importance of agriculture and food production, but we also need to acknowledge the importance of agriculture for social fundamental structure and the impact of agriculture on the ecosystem on which we depend. Globally increased agriculture production is attributed to the further industrialization agriculture since the mid 20st century (“green revolution”), but industrial agriculture is also an important reason for that mankind has now passed several planetary boundaries for sustainability. Forging research linkages between agriculture, nutrition and health overcome the adverse effects of past polices for global agriculture, nutrition and national development that have fostered only shortterm, unsustainable, solutions to starvation, malnutrition, underdevelopment, and high human fertility rates. Food system approaches (directing at empowering people and insuring balanced and adequate nutrition and improved health for all in sustainable ways) hold much promise in providing the methods needed for agriculture research to insure sustainable agriculture systems. Heads of state and government must elevate, as a matter of urgency, the nutrition as a national priority. Good nutrition is a human right, but it is impossible to achieve for whole populations with good polices for food, health, nutrition, agriculture, ecology, economy and commerce. It is therefore the responsibility of heads of state and government to provide the leadership that will lead to an allsociety approach for nutrition. We should place the lead responsibility for nutrition in ministries of health rather than agriculture so that the health requirement drives agriculture priorities not vice versa. Nutritional security should be given the same priority as food security.
