In Mississippi, the Foodprints and Foodsheds Project team met with local stakeholders to introduce the Foodprints and Foodshed model as tools that can be used to explore the capacity of land to meet human food needs and to invite feedback on the value of the foodprint and foodshed methodologies for assessing dietary impacts on local food systems. Stakeholders were challenged to consider the following questions in the context of the discussion of foodprints and foodsheds:
- How does diet influence land requirements for food production?
- How many people could be fed through local and regional food systems?
