By now it is clear that the techniques of the first Green Revolution that averted mass starvation a generation ago—pesticides, chemical fertilizers, focusing on a few key green crops—are threatening the food supply for future generations. Interestingly, the solution to this dilemma seems mostly likely to emerge from the still-developing world, where alternative methods and philosophies, based on indigenous knowledge and native crops as well as genetic engineering and other technological advances, are still possible.



Richard Manning reports on this emerging Green Revolution, pioneering the fruit of agricultural projects under way in Ethiopia, Mexico, Uganda, Zimbabwe, China, India, Peru and Chile. By placing their stories in social and political context and bringing in the voices of scientists, farmers and ordinary citizens, Manning creates a mosaic portrait of where our next meals are coming from and presents some surprising and controversial solutions to our most pressing environmental problem.
