Food production in the 20th century was transformed by three revolutions: first mechanical, then genetic, and finally chemical. Now, in the 21st century, agriculture is going through at least two more revolutions: an information technology revolution leading to precision farming, and a biotechnology revol ..."

"According to calculations by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and
Development (OECD), government policies in the European Union in 2009 made
food costs for consumers 7 percent higher than they would have been without
subsidies, and in Japan 42 percent higher. Another charge, that junkfood prices
have fallen in the United States while fruit and vegetable prices have not, is also
questionable. A 2008 study by the Economic Re ..."

"""Food Politics" is the struggle among groups in society to shape the actions of governments when taxing, regulating, or subsidizing actions within the food and farming sector."

"Policy Reform in American Agriculture" examines both the history of farm subsidies and the contemporary relevance of traditional farm programs to today's agricultural industries. This work analyzes the mixed performance of past agricultural support programs, reviews the current d ..."
" Listen to a short interview with Robert Paarlberg Host: Chris Gondek | Producer: Heron & Crane Heading upcountry in Africa to visit small farms is absolutely exhilarating given the dramatic beauty of big skies, red soil, and arid vistas, but eventually the two-lane tarmac narrows to rutted dirt, and the journey must continue on foot.

"Compared to other wealthy countries, America stands out as a gluttonous over-consumer of both food and fuel. The United States boasts an obesity prevalence double the industrial world average, and per capita carbon emissions twice the average for Europe.
