■ درباره این کتاب:
The agri-food chain
consumes about one third of the world’s
energy production with about 12% of it for
crop production and nearly 80% for
processing, distribution, retail,
preparation and cooking. The agri-food
chain also accounts for 80-90% of total
global freshwater use where 70% alone is
for irrigation. Additionally, on a global
scale, freshwater production consumes
nearly 15% of the entire energy
production. It can therefore be argued
that making agriculture and the agri-food
supply chain independent from fossil fuel
use has a huge potential to contribute to
global food security and climate
protection not only for the next decades
but also for the coming century. Provision
of secure, accessible and environmentally
sustainable supplies of water, energy and
food must thus be a priority.
One of the major objectives of the world’s
scientists, farmers, decisions makers and
industrialists is to overcome the present
dependence on fossil fuels in the
agro-food sector. This dependency
increases the volatility of food prices
and affects economic access to sustenance.
This book provides a critical review of
recent developments in solar, wind and
geothermal energy applications in
agriculture and the agro-food sector such
as processing, distribution, retail,
preparation and cooking.
