Description

It's not easy to eat well. To choose food wisely, you need to know where it comes from and how it's produced.

As consumers, most of us don't know what we're getting and eating in our supermarkets and restaurants.

When rumours and food scares circulate in the media, we panic.

Since most of us know very little about the real state of agriculture today and the ways in which the global agricultural industry produces the foods that end up on our plates, we have no basis on which to make informed judgements.

In this important new book, Jose Bove and Francois Dufour - two men from modest farming backgrounds who have become international icons of the resistance to global capitalism - unveil the workings of the agricultural industry today and lay down the principles for the creation of a new agriculture for the twenty-first century.

Following on from their international bestseller The World is not For Sale, Bove and Dufour have joined forces again to build a constructive programme for the food of the future.

They seek to make available to every citizen the facts they need in order to understand the crisis of agriculture today and to see how we can move beyond it.

Presenting a positive agenda for a new kind of agriculture, they lay the foundations for a renewal of trust between farmers and citizen-consumers in a way that would bring food - and the production of food - back into the heart of modern society.
