Summary

Roughly three-quarters of a billion of the world's poor depend on rice as producers or consumers, yet growth in rice yield in recent years has failed to keep pace with population growth. The editors argue that to avoid a future rice crisis, a new Green Revolution is required that applies to all parts of the world. Rice in the Global Economy provides a framework for the future of rice farming by outlining answers to key strategic questions about the rice economy including:-How does the role of rice change with economic growth? -What impact might climate change have on rice production? -Will Africa become the new growth center for rice? -What roles will science, technology, and policy play in answering those questions?This book brings together the various elements of the rice economy in a global context to provide a vision for the future and to serve as a scientifically credible resource for guiding the development of future initiatives to improve food security.
