FOODANDTHE ENVIRONMENT

Edited by Wayne Ganpat

his two-volume series fills a void in providing much-needed course

material for students sitting the CAPE

®

examination in Food

and the Environment and students pursuing Agriculture and Food

Production at the diploma or undergraduate level.

The main focus of the authors is on production systems and

practices that sustain soil fertility, ecosystems and people. They

consistently advocate crop and livestock production techniques that

require an agro-ecological approach aimed at reducing the use of

water, chemicals and pesticides, and the preservation of the region’s

soils.

The topics in

Volume 1

include post harvest, quality assurance, and

local, regional and international marketing.

In

Volume 2

the topics range from small producers, family farms,

women farmers and the role of youth in agriculture to appropriate agro-

systems and agricultural diversification and non-traditional systems.
