    A Evidence has to be generated not only on Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B the effects of food systems on economic, environmental and Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C social outcomes and their co-benefits and trade-offs, also Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D on understanding the levers of change and how to operate them Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Here, since ‘not only’ is used in the beginning, ‘but also’ should be used. The conjunction is ‘not only…but also’. Evidence has to be generated not only on the effects of food systems on economic, environmental and social outcomes and their co-benefits and trade-offs, but also on understanding the levers of change and how to operate them.
