World supplies and prices of food and energy are intricately linked. Fossil fuel inputs into food production now determine, in the industrial countries, that today's energy price rises will be tomorrow's food price rises. In the developing countries, an inability to be able any longer to afford energy-costly fertiliser essential to the support of "green revolution" crops could spell starvation tomorrow. It can take the equivalent of 12 or more tonnes of oil to land an edible tonne of "luxury" shrimps in some countries, while to feed each person in the UK and the USA now requires close to 0-8 tonnes, or some three times the average per capita fuel use for all purposes in the developing world. While fossil fuel inputs of this order may still be "economic" in the industrial world, they cannot continue for ever. Nor are they a possible model for the developing world to copy. Energy and Food Production provides solid information on the enormous range of energy inputs to produce different kinds of food by the full spectrum of methods from hunter-gathering and substistence farming to "synthetic" protein production. The author explores relationships between energy, land and labour usage ; exposes the amounts of energy used to transport, package, sell, cook, store and process foodstuffs, which are huge compared with the amounts used during growing ; and points out opportunities for conserving fuels.
