The United States is the undisputed world leader in agricultural
production today, but as we look out across the 21st century,
agriculture faces a series of challenges: managing new pests,
pathogens, and invasive plants; increasing the efficiency of water
use; reducing the environmental footprint of agriculture; growing
food in a changing climate; managing the production of bioenergy;
producing safe and nutritious food; and assisting with global food
security and maintaining abundant yields. Meeting these challenges
requires a new commitment to research, innovation, and technology
development in agriculture. This book examines the challenges of
agricultural preparedness and the required public commitment to
agricultural research, fostering a culture of innovation and
excellence to address some of the greatest threats to U.S.
long-term prosperity and security.
