The Ninth Revolution: Transforming Food Systems for Good
Sayed Nader Azam-AliIn plain language for the wider public, students, researchers, and policy makers, Azam-Ali envisions the agrifood system as a global public good in which its practitioners include a new and different generation of farmers, its production systems link novel and traditional technologies, and its activities encompass landscapes, urban spaces, and controlled environments. The book concludes with a call to action in which diversification of species, systems, knowledge, cultures, and products all contribute to The Ninth Revolution that will transform food systems for good. Readership: This book is aimed at a wider public that is increasingly concerned about issues of food and nutritional security, sustainable development and climate change for a world in crisis. It provides context and content for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in agroecology, crop science, natural resource management, food science and nutrition, climate change policy and genetic resources. The book will also be a resource for policy makers, international development agencies, innovators in agriculture and food systems and thought leaders.
