Focusing on the positive results of research, this book explores the vast realm of world food production. It looks at the science behind agricultural production, processing and consumption, considering even wildlife and insects and human nutrition as well. Political and economic issues, and other current issues affecting the present situation and influencing the future of world food and its production, are also discussed. The author aims to create a greater understanding of how each person affects and is affected by the world food situation, and the citations of specific countries and their food situations should help undergraduate students on courses related to world food, hunger, development and economics.
