Description

Explore the critical connection between agricultural development and global poverty in this essential volume from Routledge Studies in Development and Society. While eighty percent of the world's poor reside in rural agricultural areas, development cooperation resources for this sector have dropped to between six and seven percent of total bi- and multilateral Official Development Assistance. This gap presents a significant challenge for global stability and food security. Brandt and Otzen provide a wide-ranging conceptual reorientation that addresses the disproportionate impact political, military, and natural events have on rural populations. When regional or global food shortages occur, it is these agricultural communities that face the highest risks. This book fills a vital gap in current literature by examining why agricultural investment has dwindled and what it means for the future of rural development and economic policy. It is a necessary resource for students, researchers, and professionals focused on economic development and the systemic issues surrounding global food security and rural poverty.
