The Nexus of Science and Policy
Edited by:
Hardback – October 2019 – AU $180.00
Assesses how economics, policy and plant and agricultural science affect global food security.
Population growth alone dictates that global food supplies must increase by over 50% in coming decades. Advances in technology offer an array of opportunities to meet this demand, but history shows that these can be fully realised only within an enabling policy environment. Sustaining Global Food Security makes a compelling case that recent technological breakthroughs can move the planet towards a secure and sustainable food supply only if new policies are designed that allow their full expression.
