Feeding the world

The world’s population will pass 8 billion in 2023—and 9 billion in 2032. And all those who share our planet need nutritious food every day. K-State’s Feed the Future Innovation Labs are turning grant funding into transformative solutions designed to prevent and end hunger worldwide. This important work expands and accelerates every year — as it must, with the goal of staying one step ahead of evolving food needs.
