Förlagets beskrivning
Economic assessment of sustainable agricultural practices has continued to
mature and to add to our understanding of how we might design policies to
ensure an adequate and diverse food supply. This volume presents some of the
developments and applications in this field. It provides a comprehensive
treatment of topics, including a historical perspective leading to developments
in methods and policy. The introductory chapter presents an early history of research by
entomologists and economists, tracing the concept of integrated pest
management, the nascent organic food industry, and reviewing pesticide policy
options debated over the last several decades. The remainder of the volume is
divided into four sections focusing on the economic aspects of production, and
related policy issues. These four sections encompass the range of advances in
theoretical and applied economic analyses concerned with pesticides and
sustainable food markets. Chapters present different methodological,
ideological, and geographical perspectives from some of the environmental and
agricultural economics concerned with pesticides and sustainable production.
The book includes contributions that incorporate international experiences and
viewpoints concerning both methods and policy. Economic assessment of sustainable agricultural practices has continued to
mature and to add to our understanding of how we might design policies to
ensure an adequate and diverse food supply. This volume presents some of the
developments and applications in this field.
