This book describes the consequences of an increased demand for
food for human consumption for the global food industry. In four
concise chapters, the authors explore the trend for the
overproduction of food, the concomitant diminution of raw materials
and the increase in environmental concerns. Chapter one describes
the variations in biochemical properties of fishmeal depending on
the season and geographical location. Chapter two discusses how the
expansion of cropland and pastures to meet the rising demand for
food is damaging the environment, while chapter three examines the
impact of bee viruses on food crops and production. Lastly, the
fourth chapter addresses the issue of food adulteration and
provides specific examples of fraud in the American dairy industry.
This book is of interest to researchers working in the area of food
production in academia and industry, as well as certification and
scientific bodies involved in food inspection.
