The globalization of goods, services and capital for agriculture
is fundamental to the future of developing countries and has major
implications for the fight against poverty and sustainability of
the environment. In recent years, agriculture has once again
returned to a position of centre stage as food price volatility has
led countries to re-examine their development strategies.
This new edition of the essential textbook in the field builds
on the 2006 original and reflects the following developments:
- the increased impact of climate change
- issues affecting agricultural markets such as bio-fuels, the
rise in farm prices and energy costs
- the move to higher valued agricultural products
The book contains a wealth of real world case studies and is now
accompanied by a website that includes powerpoint lectures, a photo
bank and a large set of discussion and exam questions.The
accompanying website is available to view at http:
