Food Into Cities
Author: Olivio Argenti
Publisher: Food & Agriculture Org.
ISBN: 9789251044780
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
The rapid growth of African cities means they have a great challenge in ensuring an adequate supply of food to satisfy their nutritional needs in terms of quantity, variety and taste, at accessible/affordable prices. Food supply and distribution systems (FSDS), whether formal or informal, are a key element. An efficient FSDS can increase the availability of food to the urban consumer, and at the same time increase the revenues of both traders and producers. However, there are a number of constraints that impede the efficiency of FSDS and these are discussed in the papers in this Bulletin that address the whole issue of food supply and food security. They are addressed towards urban managers and planners together with professionals and researchers concerned with urban food security.

Food Dependency in the Middle East and North Africa Region
Author: Chantal Le Mouël
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9402415637
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 131
Book Description
This volume covers the Middle-Eastern and North African regions who are increasingly dependent on imports from abroad for covering their domestic food needs. Results of this study show that this import dependence is likely to increase further by 2050. Some sub-regions hardly reach sustainable levels; the Maghreb, Near and Middle-East could import 60 to 70% of their food needs. These results are indicative whatever the considered scenario, but especially if climate change impacts become more severe.

The Oxford Handbook of Food, Water and Society
Author: John Anthony Allan
Publisher:
ISBN: 0190669799
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 945
Book Description
Society's greatest use of water is in food production, which makes farmers central to global environmental management. Current food value chains, however, do not enable farmers to both feed a growing population and steward natural resources. Through a carefully curated collection of articles written by water and food system scientists and professionals, including farmers, this Oxford Handbook considers the interconnected issues of real water in the environment and "virtual water" in food value chains, and investigates society's influence on both. This perspective highlights considerable challenges for food security and environmental stewardship in the context of ongoing global change. The book discusses these issues by region and by selected commodities, emphasizing innovation needed for the food system to meet future challenges.
