FREE Same Day Shipping!!
In a vast society where environmentally conscious non-farming
voters and consumers have grown to greatly outnumber those directly
engaged in agriculture, what happens in agriculture becomes increasingly
subject to control by the general society, as policies and laws cater
to constituents and consumers.
This book provides an overview of how
Americans perceive and value farmers and examines public opinion with
regard to a number of agricultural issues. Based on analysis of national
survey data, the authors offer an empirically based discussion and
interpretation of those views and perceptions that help to shape policy
and social sustainability. This unique collection illustrates that in
addition to its natural, biological, and economic risks, agriculture has
social risks that reverberate through all levels of society.
