Download or read book Lost Crops of Africa written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-10-27 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is the second in a series of three evaluating underexploited African plant resources that could help broaden and secure Africa's food supply. The volume describes the characteristics of 18 little-known indigenous African vegetables (including tubers and legumes) that have potential as food- and cash-crops but are typically overlooked by scientists and policymakers and in the world at large. The book assesses the potential of each vegetable to help overcome malnutrition, boost food security, foster rural development, and create sustainable landcare in Africa. Each species is described in a separate chapter, based on information gathered from and verified by a pool of experts throughout the world. Volume I describes African grains and Volume III African fruits.

Book Synopsis Food Balances for 30 Countries in Africa and West Asia, 1959-61 (Classic Reprint) by : United States Economic Research Service
Download or read book Food Balances for 30 Countries in Africa and West Asia, 1959-61 (Classic Reprint) written by United States Economic Research Service and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Balances for 30 Countries in Africa and West Asia, 1959-61 West Asia and Africa comprise some 75 political entities which include 47 independent countries. The estimated population of the combined regions reached 385 million in 1964, roughly 11 percent of the world's total. Agricultural data available for the area permit the preparation of food balances for only 30 countries in West Asia and Africa. The thoughtful reader will realize that statistics of' food production and utilization for some of the 30 countries covered by these food balances are only marginally better than statistics for some of the 45 political entities not covered. Although the agriculture practiced throughout the area is mainly of the subsistence type, there is'a significant commercial sector. This part of the world is the major source of such important internationally traded commodities as oil palm products, cocoa, long staple cotton, and dates, and an important source of coffee, peanuts, rubber, tobacco, citrus, and filberts. Food consumption per per son, in terms of calories is generally low. In most parts of the region the diet is characterized by a heavy dependency on inexpensive starchy foods, with consequent protein deficiencies. Agricultural production occupies the major part of the labor force and accounts for a large part of the exports of the region. Food production, however, is supplemented slightly by imports, mainly of wheat and wheat flour, sugar, canned meat, and milk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. The Scarcity Slot is the first book to critically examine food security in Africa’s deep past. Amanda L. Logan argues that African foodways have been viewed through the lens of ‘the scarcity slot,’ a kind of Othering based on presumed differences in resources. Weaving together archaeological, historical, and environmental data with food ethnography, she advances a new approach to building long-term histories of food security on the continent in order to combat these stereotypes. Focusing on a case study in Banda, Ghana that spans the past six centuries, The Scarcity Slot reveals that people thrived during a severe, centuries-long drought just as Europeans arrived on the coast, with a major decline in food security emerging only recently. This narrative radically challenges how we think about African foodways in the past with major implications for the future.
Download or read book Food Supply written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Supply: Griffin's "New Land" Series The amount of the Food Supply of the world, or at least that portion of it which is drawn from land, is largely de pendent upon the cultivation of the soil. In some cases, cultivation has for its Object the production of cereals and other crops, which directly form a considerable portion of the food consumed by man. In other cases, the land is cultivated and plants are grown to produce food for animals, which are destined to be slaughtered and become our principal meat supply; while, in ordinary farming practice, a combination of both systems is pursued. N o doubt a certain portion of our food supply is obtained by the slaughter of wild and of domestic animals which have earned their living on land lying in a state of nature; but the amount thus derived constitutes so small a por tion of the whole, that it deserves comparatively little consideration. Taking it as granted that our Food Supply, directly or indirectly, depends upon the result of the work of those who cultivate the soil, the practical consideration of the methods pursued by British farmers, the crops they grow, and the live-stock they produce, may well form a basis of study for those who intend to become farmers, whether at home or abroad.

Book Synopsis Food Balances in Foreign Countries by : U. S. Foreign Agricultural Service
Download or read book Food Balances in Foreign Countries written by U. S. Foreign Agricultural Service and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Balances in Foreign Countries: Estimates for 28 Countries of Africa and Western Asia Western Asia and Africa have a population of some 300 million, or nearly 10 percent of the world's total. Four-fifths or more depend on agriculture for a living. Commercial agriculture has made marked progress in many parts of the area, as is indicated by the fact that it is the world's major source of palm oil produce, cocoa, long staple cotton, and dates, and a leading supplier of coffee, peanuts, flue-cured tobacco, oriental tobacco, citrus, and filberts. Most of the farmers, however, practice a subsistence type of agriculture. Food output per capita is generally low, and the area's production is supplemented to only a minor extent by imports, consisting mostly of wheat and wheat flour, sugar, and some canned meat and milk. Thus, food consumption levels are generally low, though the average per capita, in terms of energy value, is higher for the area as a whole than for the densely populated Far East. It also appears to be higher in nearly all countries of Western Asia, Northern Africa, and Southern Africa. In most parts of these regions, however, heavy dependence on starchy foods is as characteristic of the diet as in the Far East.

Book Synopsis The Food Question (Classic Reprint) by :
Download or read book The Food Question (Classic Reprint) written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Food Question This book was planned before Food Conservation was by the mass considered seriously. The writers of the various articles are thoroughly qualified to speak where they have spoken. They are practical, conscientious, Christian, and have at heart the best in the needs of humanity. Every one strikes a major chord in the song of healthful, economical living. The recipes are from the author of "Food and Cookery," who has had a score of years' experience in every station and phase of the preparation of food, under French, English, German, and Spanish chefs. He has been second cook in the Calumet Club of Chicago, the California Club, Los Angeles, and in many leading hotels in various cities. For ten years, he has given his best thought and study to the preparation of the best in food, scientific, palatable, wholesome, and economic, most of this time in the Sanitarium and College of Medical Missionaries, Loma Linda, California. Special attention is called to the valuable tables of Food Elements, and to the newly demonstrated values of vita-mines and the substances which destroy them. We are grateful for the kind word spoken by Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, president of Stanford University, and first assistant to Mr. Hoover in the Federal Food Administration Department; also for the help and suggestions of Dr. Newton Evans, president of the College of Medical Evangelists, of Loma Linda, California. The little book will, we believe, not only meet present needs, but be a safe counselor in the years to come.

Book Synopsis Markets and States in Tropical Africa by : Robert H. Bates
Download or read book Markets and States in Tropical Africa written by Robert H. Bates and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-04-12 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following independence, most countries in Africa sought to develop, but their governments pursued policies that actually undermined their rural economies. Examining the origins of Africa’s “growth tragedy,” Markets and States in Tropical Africa has for decades shaped the thinking of practitioners and scholars alike. Robert H. Bates’s analysis now faces a challenge, however: the revival of economic growth on the continent. In this edition, Bates provides a new preface and chapter that address the seeds of Africa’s recovery and discuss the significance of the continent’s success for the arguments of this classic work.
