Analyzing the Food Supply Chain: Asking Questions, Evaluating Evidence, and Designing Solutions

Library Binding (Cavendish Square Publishing Aug. 15, 2018)
As humans continue to shape the environment through urbanization and increased industrialization, it will become more difficult to feed everyone, with the U.N. estimating that food production will need to increase by 70 percent if, as projected, the world population is around nine billion in 2050. This book explains how climate change and lack of water affect crops, making it difficult to feed people, especially in impoverished areas. Also discussed are potential solutions on how to grow and distribute food more efficiently and how to help farmers thrive.
