The 2023 report further highlights the
methodological and data challenges that need
to be addressed for greater adoption of TCA,
especially in low- and lower-middle-income
countries. It quantifies, to the extent possible, the
hidden costs of national agrifood systems in a
consistent and comparable way for 154 countries.
These preliminary results cover hidden costs from
greenhouse gas emissions, nitrogen emissions, blue
water use, land-use transitions, and poverty, as
well as losses in productivity caused by unhealthy
dietary patterns and undernourishment.
The pressing need to incorporate hidden costs
into our decision-making processes, as part of the
broader effort to transform the way our agrifood
systems function, is underscored by the striking
figures that already emerge from this year’s
findings, despite their tentative nature and the
aim of refinement in 2024. Preliminary results
strongly suggest that the global hidden costs
of our agrifood systems – despite the exclusion
of certain impacts and a considerable degree of
uncertainty – exceed USD 10 trillion.
