Agrifood systems capture the full journey of food from farm to table  from growing, fishing and harvesting to processing, packaging, transporting, trading, consuming, and disposing. But they go beyond food alone. They also include non-food agricultural products that sustain livelihoods, as well as the people, activities, investments, environments, and decisions that shape how these products are made available.

In AGROVOC, agrifood systems is a multilingual, structured concept that helps researchers and practitioners describe this complexity consistently across contexts and disciplines. Using a shared definition improves data integration, comparability, and discovery  inviting users to explore how interconnected todays food systems really are.
