内容説明

This volume sets the stage for new legislation due out in 1995 to replace the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990. The contributors focus on trade-offs between budget constraints and income assistance; international and national priorities for farming; environmental concerns and efficiency in agriculture; food costs, quality, and safety; and alternative research and extension education programmes.
