Restoration involves several social and biophisical complexities that wouldn’t allow for a universal model to fit all situations. On your question on how to restore if we need to produce food, there are studies showing that agricultural productivity can be improved, food waste can be reduced and meat consumption (which requires a lot of land) can also be reduced. These changes could spare land for restoration, for example.
