3. Indicators that help define food systems Urbanization reflects evolving demographic dynamics such as changes in fertility rates, lifestyles and occupations, and land use patterns. Agricultural productivity reflects technology use, especially mechanization, in agriculture. Food supply diversity derives from relatively fixed natural resource assets, investments in agricultural R&D, and agricultural policies. Soil quality and change in land use are suggestive of the stress placed on the food production system from agriculture Level of food prices and share of the consumer budget spent on food reveal the burden on consumers of meeting their food needs.
