The purpose of Agriculture and the Citizen is to help people
understand the way in which agriculture operates, providing the
information necessary to enable them to arrive at an informed view
on major issues: can the increasing world population be adequately
fed without unacceptable pollution to the environment? Is the food
and water we consume safe? Will we run out of natural resources
such as land, fuel or water? Is the current use of agrochemicals
necessary or dangerous? Is intensive farming sustainable or would
organic farming be better? How can we help developing countries? Is
food aid a good thing or not? How far should the genetic
manipulation of plants and animals be allowed to go? This important
book will appeal to all concerned with such issues, including all
those studying and teaching agricultural and environmental
sciences, research scientists, policy makers, and libraries, it is
written in language that non-specialists can understand.
