Agriculture, Environment, and Health: Sustainable Development in the 21st Centur

Description: Agriculture, Environment, and Health by Vernon Ruttan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This study contains an interdisciplinary exploration of current institutional design and policy reform changes, and an extrapolation of their implications for sustainable development in agricultural production. Publisher Description Agriculture, Environment, and Health offers a broad and challenging analysis of changes now under way at the global level in institutional design and policy reform that ultimately will promote sustainable growth in agricultural production. Internationally known contributors from the agricultural, health, environmental, and social sciences argue that an interdisciplinary approach is essential to dealing with this global problem. Particular attention is given to the institutions that conduct research and implement changes in technology and practice in the fields of agriculture and health as well as institutions that monitor the changes in resource endowments, the quality of the environment, and the health of productivity of the human resources employed in agricultural production.Sustainable development, say the contributors - including Douglass C. North, Carl K. Eicher, and Godfrey Gunatilleke - will be achieved only if knowledge from separate areas is effectively communicated and integrated into the basis of all research conclusions and directives. Agriculture, Environment, and Health contributes to the productive building of bridges between research efforts across the fields of health, environment, and agriculture. Author Biography Vernon W. Ruttan is Regents Professor in the Departments of Economics and Agricultural and Applied Economics and an adjunct professor in the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota.
