This must-read book provides incisive economic insights into the global and local challenges for production system and the implications for consumption patterns.' Robert J Stimson, University of Queensland and Convenor of the Australian Research Council Research Network in Spatially Integrated Social Science, Australia 'This important and timely book focuses on a topic which has been recently receiving much attention among policy makers in the European Community who are trying to reshape the Common Agricultural Policy. This set of scientific articles skillfully analyzes production and consumption of selected agricultural products that face critical decisions regarding new technological innovation in light of traditional agricultural food production practices which often comply with social and environmental sustainability criteria. This book is an important addition to the on-going debate about optimizing agricultural production policies in developed countries.'
