Agriculture and the Citizen

Agriculture has always mattered to people because its products are essential for survival but for many years, in an atmosphere of large food mountains, people in developed countries have regarded the supply of food as guaranteed and have seen no reason to understand how it is produced. Recently, however, the situation has changed markedly. The impact of agriculture on animal welfare, food safety and the environment has become a matter of great public concern. The purpose of Agriculture and the Citizen is to help people understand the way in which agriculture operates, providing the information necessary to enable them to arrive at an informed view on major issues. This important book will appeal to all concerned with such issues, including all those studying and teaching agricultural and environmental sciences, research scientists, policy makers and libraries. It is written in language that non-specialists can understand.
