Fresh food sold from a farm stand requires little additional energy, aside from that necessary for cultivation, harvest, and transportation. Food sold at a remote location incurs a different set of energy costs for materials, labor, and transport. Packaging consumes a significant amount of natural resources and energy. The recommended books reviewed below point the way to increasing agricultural productivity without harming the environment. Sustainable farming is a central element in a systemic approach to saving the Earth. David Yarian, Ph.D.
