| Publisher Description: This special publication features the "overviews" of four invited speakers on "Agronomic Research for Food." Assuring an adequate food supply is one of the basic responsibilities of government. Some of the most pressing problems in expanding world food supply occur in the developing countries. It is here that agronomic advances, technology, resource allocation, and education are critical. Dr. Schuh discusses "Planning for Hunger Prevention" by appraising the current world agricultural situation, evaluating the changed conditions in the U. S., and detailing the steps needed to deal with world food needs. |
