Food production and competing priorities

Garrett Winter’s book frames the future of food production as a question involving more than how to grow enough. It sets perspectives favoring industrial agriculture alongside arguments for efficiency and scale that also incorporate local, sustainable farming. Environmental and social justice enter the discussion, as does the way food systems shape access to nutrition and resources across social classes. Drawing on recent studies, the book presents food production as a complex issue with ethical, financial, and societal dimensions.

Book overview

As technology in food production continues to advance, the ethical and financial means of producing large quantities of food have been called into question. This volume focuses on the complex landscape of food production, exploring diverse perspectives on the best plan moving forward for feeding the world. Through a range of perspectives, the advocates of industrial agriculture are contrasted with arguments for efficiency and scalability, incorporating components of local, sustainable farming, as well as environmental and social justice. The opposing views' influence on food across social classes is examined, highlighting disparities in nutrition and resources. By incorporating insights from recent studies, this title presents a multifaceted discussion about the implications of our food systems on society's future.
