Download or read book Global Food Trade and Consumer Demand for Quality written by Barry Krissoff and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumers have always been concerned about the quality, and particularly the safety, of the foods they eat. In recent years this concern has taken on additional prominence. Consumer focus on food safety has been sharpened by reports about new risks, such as that posed by "mad cow" disease, and about more familiar sources of risk, such as food borne pathogens, pesticides, and hormones. At the same time, some consumers are in creasingly interested in knowing more about how their food is produced and in selecting products based on production practices. Some of the questions consumers are asking in clude whether food is produced with the use of modern biotechnology, whether it is or ganically produced, how animals are treated in meat and egg production systems, and whether food is produced using traditional methods. Recent trends also show increased consumer demand for a variety of food products that are fresh, tasty, and available on a year-round basis. This has fostered increased global trade in food. For example, consumers in temperate climates such as North America are able to buy raspberries throughout the year, and Europeans can enjoy South American coffee. Trade in processed food products is actually increasing more rapidly than trade in agricultural commodities, further addressing the demand for variety among consumers.

Download or read book World Food Needs and Availabilities 1987 88 Winter Update Classic Reprint written by United States Economic Research Service and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-13 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from World Food Needs and Availabilities, 1987/88: Winter Update This report presents two alternative measures of the overall food import requirements (commercial plus concessional) and the additional food needs of each country for and The status quo and nutrition based assessments are based on two different sets of normative judgments and assumptions regarding the role of additional food and the considerations that might govern its use. The basic assumption underlying the status quo assessment is that additional food would be needed to prevent national food supplies, and hence total consumption, from falling below recent levels. Meeting status quo food needs would in principle stabilize national per capita use by filling shortfalls in domestic production and import capacity. The nutrition-based assessment addresses the continuing problem of undernourishment in many of the developing countries. The assumption is that additional foo'd would be needed to close the gap between national food availabilities and an internationally accepted minimum nutritional standard. The nutrition-based estimates thus provide an aggregate measure of the nutritional gap, net of recipient countries' capacity to import food commercially. Calculation of zero nutrition-based food needs does not mean all citizens have a nutritionally adequate diet. In developing countries, poor nutrition is frequently the consequence of poor income distribution. Status quo food needs assessments are stabilized by the method of estimating annual base period per capita food use. While the base moves forward annually, it does not fluctuate as sharply as would a simple average. Base period food use is calculated as the mean of the most recent 4 years that deviate less than one standard deviation from the mean of the most recent 8 years of record. The method is explained in the Methodological Notes section of this report. The most current available weather, crop production, and financial data were employed in updating assessments. With new or changed crop information, production and additional food needs estimates change, sometimes sharply. The supplementary reports issued through the year provide users with assessments based on current weather and crop information. The assessments are based on projected agricultural production, trade and general economic trends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Requiem For The Sudan written by J. Millard Burr and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a decade of uneasy peace, the historic conflict between the North and South Sudanese erupted into violent conflict in 1983 This ferocious civil war, witti its Arab militias and widespread use of automatic weapons, has devastated the populace. In additon to the miseries of war, drought and famine took a further toll on an already battered societyalthough this regional calamity remains largely unknown to the outside world, over 1,000,000 people have either perished or been displaced. Furthermore, the Sudanese government seemed little inclined to help its own people Requiem for the Sudan provides a chilling account of the ravages of drought and civil war, graphically recounting how attempts by international agencies and humanitarian organizations to provide food and medical reliefhave been thwarted by bureaucratic infighting, corruption, greed, and ineptitude. Based on a wealth of previously unpublished documents, Requiem for the Sudan clearly illustrates how the failure of conflict resolution, organizational mismanagement, and a government hostile toward its own people had tragic human consequences.
