The world is changing at a pace, driven by global megatrends and their interactions. Megatrends, including climate change, the drive for sustainability, an aging population, urbanization, geopolitical tensions, are producing increasingly challenging environment provision of safe secure food supply. To ensure robust, safe, supply all, potential safety impacts associated with these need to be understood, mitigation management plans must implemented. This paper outlines relevant megatrends, discusses impact on safety, suggests steps help production in future. Megatrends driving resource depletion, reducing vitality plants animals, increasing geographical spread animal plant pathogens, risk mycotoxins, agrichemical residues, antimicrobial-resistant pathogens contaminating foods, threatening destabilize systems regulatory network. Science-based actions, adopting continual dynamic assessments, alongside use more sensitive accurate methods detection contaminants, may counter challenges. artificial intelligence, robotics automation, enhancement cultures, continued education training workforces, implementation risk-based regulations will preventative controls place. As low-income countries smallholder farmers likely exposed less have resources them, social inequality, unrest, population migration exacerbated unless urgent action taken.
