Overview
The SFS R&D Programme was initiated to support the national agenda of strengthening Singapore's food security and achieving our "30 by 30" vision, while reaping economic benefits.

SFS 2.0 will focus on four R&D domains i.e. (i) AquaPolis (Aquaculture); (ii) Sustainable Urban Agriculture; (iii) Future Foods; (iv) Food Safety.

The target focus areas for the four domains are as follows:
