Final Paper: Annotated BibliographyAn annotated bibliography is a tool researchers use to break down scientific and other
articles and summarize them in straightforward, understandable manner. The bibliography
includes multiple articles, and it helps you categorize the information so that you can
understand it and write about it much more easily later.
Your annotated bibliography requires that you annotate 10 references (or more if you
prefer) according to the format below. The purpose of this assignment is to keep you on
track for completing your final research paper (and will be to a great extent the basis for
your PPT presentation), to get you to think through literature you are reading, and to help
you organize your thoughts on the articles you read to help you hone your arguments and
descriptions for your final paper. So, 8 of the references must be original research from the
academic literature (peer-reviewed, scientific articles). The other 2 may include documents
from government organizations and review papers from peer-reviewed journals.
Create a table like the one below in Word and copy and paste 9 times for a total of 10
tables. Complete your annotations and submit with your last name as the file name.

Editorial Comments Provide your analysis and critique of the article’s methods, results,
and implications. Are their arguments sound or not, and why? This
section is intended to be a critique, not a description. Your critique
allows you to point out strengths/weaknesses of the research or
arguments made, and it helps you think through how this paper or
other resource can be useful to your overall final paper arguments.

Critical Examination of Food Systems Issues – Food Systems Sustainability
Rawan Taha
Background: The Food systems sustainability’s issue has attained outstanding recognition in the
past few years because of its intense inference for human health and the surrounding. The
abstract majors in examining the relationship of agricultural practices in food systems and the
influence of agricultural practices in food systems on health and the environment. Understanding
the current literature helps identify the challenges and opportunities linked with attaining food
systems sustainability.
Objective: This paper focuses to study and incorporate the existing literature on the interaction
between agricultural practices and their influence on the surroundings and health. Surveying the
literature identifies major elements that enhance food systems’ sustainability and advancement
plans. The objective is to give an extensive comprehension of sustainable food production
focusing on human health and environmental conservation.
Outcomes: The main outcome tackled in this paper is to give an evaluation of the current proof
concerning the effect of agricultural practices on a sustainable environment and outcomes on
human health. Additionally, the paper will examine the significance of embracing innovative
ways that include organic farming, reduction in food waste, and regenerative approaches to
facilitate food system sustainability. The findings focus to commit to the current conversation on
the necessity of sustainable practices.
