Abstract
Food systems’ impacts and dependencies on nature are substantial. They threaten nature’s capacity to supply the ecosystem services on which
economies, food security, public health, and poverty alleviation depend. Policy makers lack evidence on the effectiveness and true costs of
concrete policy intervention options. This brief calls on the G20 to support International Organizations in efforts to harmonize and then to apply True Value Accounting (TVA) in
policy making in the public and private sectors (i.e., valuing the impacts and dependencies of food systems on natural, social, human, and produced capital for both the public and private sectors). True Value Accounting approaches can, as per policy brief proposal, inform policies to repurpose agricultural subsidies to farmland restoration, which can
be brought to scale through the transformative use of digital technologies.
