In this fascinating investigation that spans four continents and is based on interviews of experts but also of many farmers, Marie-Monique Robin takes a comprehensive stance on the agro-industrial model, which, after half a century, is still not able to feed the world, but is largely to blame for the current ecological disaster and for pushing millions of farmers into slums. This study shows that, yes, it is possible to "do things differently" and to solve the food problem.
From Mexico to Japan, through Malawi, Kenya, Senegal, the United States and several European countries, this book examines ways in which to solve the food problem whilst respecting both the environment and natural resources. In order to do so it is necessary to fundamentally change the food distribution system and to give back to farmers their key role in this evolution that will prove crucial to the survival of humanity.
