In the past century, agriculture has been characterized by increased productivity, the substitution of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides for labor, water pollution, and farm subsidies. In recent years there has been a backlash against the environmental effects of conventional agriculture, resulting in the organic, regenerative, and sustainable agriculture movements.[69][77] One of the major forces behind this movement has been the European Union, which first certified organic food in 1991 and began reform of its Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in 2005 to phase out commodity-linked farm subsidies,[78] also known as decoupling. The growth of organic farming has renewed research in alternative technologies such as integrated pest management and selective breeding.[79] Recent mainstream technological developments include genetically modified food.[80] Demand for non-food biofuel crops,[81] development of former farm lands, rising transportation costs, climate change, growing consumer demand in China and India, and population growth,[82] are threatening food security in many parts of the world.[83][84][85][86][87] The International Fund for Agricultural Development posits that an increase in smallholder agriculture may be part of the solution to concerns about food
