#9Knorr Future 50 Report? Title should be changed to inform that it's not WWF report alone.
It should be changed as the report was spearheaded by Dorothy Shaver, "Registered Dietitian and Global Knorr Sustainability Lead."
Some will view that cynically, but there is absolutely nothing in the report that seems biased or benefiting Knorr in any way, beyond sincerely trying to herald sustainable food and at most getting a bit of credit for trying to do good. It still is an interesting read.

This. Western world has a bit skewed view of food anyway, since most distribution is handled by large companies that optimize for their own profit, and this applies to producers as well. We couldn't survive without modern "food chains", but that does not mean the crops used by the modern processes are the only viable ones. Rather, they are the most popular ones for which the processes have been optimized for.
