    Individual knowledge and understanding of the impact of food choices and how to grow/select healthy food is critical for an educated consumer.  Supply and demand will inform and influence the economics of modern food industry and having safe and secure access to healthy food, regardless of location and economic status, is paramount to correcting late 20th-century agribusiness model.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
