Il s'agit du discours d'un responsable d'une banque alimentaire et voici la phrase dans son intégralité :

Because of corporate concentration, so-called free trade, the reliance on high technology – and silver bullet fixes - and significantly on our heavy reliance on gas and oil, to source and distribute our food all over the world.
Je crois comprendre l'idée mais je ne trouve pas le terme en français...
Merci de votre aide!
