Part of the Nelson "Biology Advanced Studies", this book covers food production. It has been written to cover both the core and options of A-level, AS-level and SCE Higher courses in biology, and relevant vocational courses in Further and Higher Education.
Social, economic and environmental aspects are emphasized and enhanced by real-life case studies throughout. Questions aimed at increasing understanding and stimulating discussion are spread throughout the book with suggestions for investigations included.
The books in the "Biology Advanced Studies" series provide a blend of accurate information and educational relevance by utilizing two authors on each book. In most cases, one is a practising teacher and examiner, and the other is a specialist from the industry.
Concentrating on the successful production of food, this book introduces the principles of animal husbandry and crop production. It emphasizes crop yield and the control of pests, and covers some of the developments in the food industry, including post-harvest treatment of food in readiness for human consumption. Environmental and global implications are highlighted wherever relevant.
