provides a new analysis of population and agricultural growth.
argues that we can't make sense of population and food production
without recognizing the drivers of three fundamentally different
types of agriculture: Malthusian (expansion), industrialization
(external-input-dependent) and intensification (labour-based).
upends entrenched misconceptions such as that we are running out of
land for food production and that our only hope is development of
new agricultural technologies written in an engaging style,
containing vignettes, short histories and global case studies will
not only be of interest to students and scholars of agriculture,
land management and development, but also those more widely
interested in learning about agri-food systems and the challenges
of feeding a growing population.
