Summary
Agricultural economists have come to realize that in the world of global trade, government policies have as significant an impact on food production as agronomic practices. "Food policy" examines two nations where fundamental changes in food policy have brought about dramatic improvements in food production. In Pakistan, government policies toward privatization have unshackled free market forces and removed the inefficiencies of government support systems. In Bangladesh, thought less than a generation ago to be a "basket case," similar changes have lifted the nation from the point of food disaster to self-sufficiency. Insightful viewing for students of agricultural economics, international trade, government, and sociology
