Description
A work that focuses on the relentless drive for maximum food production at rock-bottom cost. As health scares spiral, rural workers are driven off the land and poor nations are forced to export their goods in a cut-throat marketplace. Colin Trudge proposes an alternative, looking at the global food industry and showing how - without resorting to GM crops - corporate barons can be stripped of control, the world can be fed and humanity can survive.
Description
"Colin Tudge looks at the past, present and future of food production, and concludes that today's globalized, corporatized approach has misappropriated science, regarded farming purely as a business like any other and lost touch with what it was intended for: feeding the people. We must get back to seeing ourselves as a species and the world as our habitat, reawaken traditional, regional cuisines and re-root processes in the biological and physical realities of the land. Only then can we take back control of our food from industrialists and financiers - and ultimately ensure the survival of humanity."--BOOK JACKET.
