Over the last two years, Worldwatch's Nourishing the Planet team has travelled to 25 sub-Saharan African nations - the places where hunger is greatest - and uncovered a treasure trove of innovations from farmers groups, private voluntary organizations, universities, and even agribusiness companies. These innovations offer global benefits - from the continent's role in preventing disastrous climate change to the way urban farmers are feeding people in cities and why even determined locavores are sustained by the crop diversity preserved by farmers thousands of miles away. This book assesses the state of agricultural innovations from cropping methods to irrigation technology to agricultural po...
Food safety awareness is at an all time high, new and emerging threats to the food supply are being recognized, and consumers are eating more and more meals prepared outside of the home. Accordingly, retail and foodservice establishments, as well as food producers at all levels of the food production chain, have a growing responsibility to ensure that proper food safety and sanitation practices are followed, thereby, safeguarding the health of their guests and customers. Achieving food safety success in this changing environment requires going beyond traditional training, testing, and inspectional approaches to managing risks.

African agriculture faces major challenges with growing population pressure and the impact of climate change. Until now food production overall has broadly kept pace with demand. To maintain this impressive achievement, production from the land needs to be intensified, soil fertility must be enhanced, forests and water resources must be conserved, and land use practices must be sustainable over the long term. This book shows what needs to be done, and points to how best to achieve this. The book starts with a brief guide to what plants and animals need to grow well, how farmers currently use the land, and the research that is being conducted on new agricultural technologies. A comparison is ...

A great-grandson of church founders James and Ellen White, the author takes the gospel to primitive and hostile natives high in the Livingstone Mountains of southwestern Tanzania. Hidden in a veritable Garden of Eden, a "kingdom" is ruled by one of Africa's last great chiefs who, with his hundred wives, dominates the lives of his people. They have no schools and have rejected Christianity, having literally "thrown out" missionaries of several faiths.Challenged by a government official who asks, "Can Adventists succeed where others have failed?" native associates of the author cautiously "spy out the land," making friends, first of villagers, then of the tyrannical chief. Just when efforts to establish a mission outpost seem successful, the project implodes when both chief and colonial administrators suddenly and mysteriously order it closed and out of the region!Birth of a Mission tells the story of how the author and his assistants worked to salvage the project and of how, surprisingly, the decree to abandon the new mission ultimately and providentially served to help turn a once pagan chiefdom into a stronghold of Adventism!
Africa is confronted with the triple burden of malnutrition; it is also faced with the triple challenges of poverty, inequality and unemployment. In many African countries, large proportions of the population rely on agriculture not only for their food - but also for their livelihoods. A transformed agricultural and food system is thus a necessary condition for addressing this double-triple challenge. Additionally, post harvest and food waste and losses reduce the availability of sufficient quantities of safe, edible and preferable foods. At least one third of food produced at farm level is lost due to inappropriate storage, infrastructure and agro-processing technologies in developing countries; and one third of food purchased is wasted at household and retail level.
