The Wheat Problem (Classic Reprint): Based on Remarks Made in the Presidential Adress to the British Association at Bristol in 1898 - Softcover
Synopsis
How policy, farming, and trade shape a nation’s bread security
This concise exploration examines how a country’s home-grown wheat options, farming practices, and international trade affect its ability to feed itself. It looks at historical trends, data comparisons, and policy ideas that aim to reduce dependence on imports and strengthen food resilience.
Drawing on early twentieth-century analysis, the book discusses the limits of wheat production, the role of prices, and the challenges of expanding acreage while maintaining profitable farming. It considers the potential for increased yields, the impact of fertilizer use, and the balance between agriculture and other crops in securing future supplies.
- Assess how domestic wheat production compares with imports and what that means for national security.
- Learn how policy shifts and farming choices could influence future output and price stability.
- Review historical data on acreage, yields, and international wheat trade to frame current debates.
- Understand the risks and opportunities involved in expanding home wheat supplies.
Ideal for readers of economic history, policy analysis, and food security, this edition offers clear context for the ongoing discussion about securing bread supplies.
