This volume in the International Studies in Demography series examines the effects of rural population growth in developing countries on food production, covering such topics as forecasts of global output of food, technological progress in agriculture, choice of agricultural system, the influence of population density on the evolution of market institutions, the role of the frontier as a safety valve, population growth and access to land, and rural proletarianization. The book takes a close look at the impact of population growth where it is believed to matter most - in the rural areas of developing countries.
