Reading Guide & Summary
Read Sustainable Agriculture and Food []
The interest in the sustainability of agricultural and food systems can be traced to environmental concerns that began to appear in the 1950s and 1960s.
How- ever, ideas about sustainability date back at least to the oldest surviving writings from China, Greece and Rome (King, 1911; Cato, 1979; Hesiod, 1988; Con- way, 1997; Li Wenhua, 2001; Pretty, 2002). More recent concerns began to develop during the 1960s, and were particularly driven by Rachel Carson’s book Silent Spring (Carson, 1963).
Like other popular and scientific studies at the time, it focused on the environmental harm caused by agriculture.
