Abstract:Circularity is a new paradigm of nutrient management that is seeking to mitigate environmental impacts of agriculture by reducing nutrient losses through their recuperation and reuse. However, circular nutrient management is not an end goal in itself, but rather a means to a transition to sustainable food systems. We argue for a conceptually stronger and more explicit combination of circularity strategies with efficiency and sufficiency. A conceptual framework to combine these three transition strategies is pr… Show more
