Agriculture and Natural Resources

The maintenance of strong food, fibre, and forest production systems along with the protection and wise use of our natural resources is imperative. US agricultural and natural resources must now compete in an integrated world market, and it is increasingly recognized that agriculture, forestry, wildlife, fisheries and recreatiom management are combined in an interdependent resource system and policy formation processes. This book identifies issues and trends in agriculture, natural resources, and rural communities along with implications for our educational system as future academic and research programmes are planned.
