    Analysis Of Eric Schlosser's 'Fast Food Nation'

    Paul Patterson describes the current market for potatoes as an “oligopsony” because potatoes farmers barely get any profit from the few processing companies that operate near their farming area. A lot of potato farmers in Idaho have lost their job because of the low income. In addition, refraining to join PGI alliance also contributes to the failure of family farms and it has helped corporate farms to expand. Patterson describes, “You increasingly find two classes of people in rural Idaho: the people who run the farms and the people who own them.” With all kind of competitions, it has caused most of the potato farmers live a harsh life in…

    Analysis Of Michael Pollen's 'Visible Farmers/Invisible Workers'

    Michael Pollen is an authoritative figure in the realm of food that, indeed, has portrayed some very interesting and beneficial perspectives. However, he also has a tendency to use his position of power to infiltrate societal views when it comes to agriculture and eating. In “Visible Farmers/Invisible Workers” by Sarah D. Wald, Pollen is dissected critically for his lack of attention paid to the workers that allow the United States to produce megatons of food each year.…

    Deep Economy Bill Mckibben Summary

    Not only this, but “the farmers profit margin dropped from 35% in the 1950 's to about 9% today.” (Mckibben, 54) This means that “to generate the same income as it did in 1950, a farm today would need to be roughly four times as large.” (Mckibben, 55) As a result of this perpetual growth and centralization, problems like “huge sewage lagoons, miserable animals, vulnerability to sabotage and food-born illness”(mckibben, 61) have become commonplace. Not only this, but “we are running out of the two basic ingredients we need to grow food on an industrial scale: oil and water.” (Mckibben, 62) The situation has become so dire that “we are now facing a near simultaneous depletion of the underground aquifers which have been responsible for the unsustainable, artificial inflation of food production.” At this point of realization, Mckibben begins indulging the reader in a large number of facts that promote a more localized form of farming as the solution to a seemingly endless number of issues. Initially the point is raised that “sustainable agriculture leads to a 93% increase in per-hectare food production.” (Mckibben, 68) The next idea raised is that, “since World War 1, it has been cheaper to use…

    How Did Cyrus Olvilley Contribute To America

    Have you ever thought of where your produce comes from? If you have, then you’ve probably thought of the supermarket, or more logically, a farm. In a barnyard they have all these different kinds of animals; cattle, pigs, chickens, maybe even horses. The farmer always takes good care of his animals, but what about all the other stuff, like his crops? Crops are one of the most important things on a farm. They need to be tended and cared for, like the animals, but they also need to be harvested. Back then in the 1800s, it wasn’t as easy as it is now. Farmers had to harvest their crops by hand, and it took some back-breaking work to do it. They needed something or someone to help generate a tool to make collecting crops easier, and with his skill and determination, that’s exactly what Cyrus Hall McCormick did.…

    The Omnivore's Dilemma Summary

    In Michael Pollan’s, The Omnivores Dilemma everything we eat is somehow derived from corn. Dating back to the day of the Mayans when they were sometimes referred to as “the corn people” (Pollan 19). Pollan takes us back to the “beginning” of the industrial food chain. In The Omnivores Dilemma historical context, ideology, and setting do not do the reader justice in opening their eyes to the harsh reality that without the corn industry eating as we know it today would cease to exist.…
