Sustainable agricultural intensification holds promise to play a
role in the broader effort to ensure food security while protecting our natural
resource base. But what would such a sustainable intensification look like in

and food security potential of 11 technologies for the sustainable intensification
of the key staple crops of maize, rice, and wheat.
