changes in agricultural systems Small scale to large scale – bigger and more efficient machines can be used where field sizes are large scientific and technological innovations HYV (high yield varieties) Artificial fertilizers and pesticides GM foods expansion of the area under agriculture Irrigation in the arid areas eg. California growth of agribusiness Research by large TNC’s can improve biotechnology

Food availability can be affected by in other ways… Trade Blocs Arrangements to allow free trade within countries of that group, but impose tariffs on other countries. ex: European Union Multi- and bilateral- agreements A number of countries (EU) agree to import goods from other countries (CARICOM)

Agricultural Subsidies Giving money to certain industries to help them remain competitive in the global market Trade Barriers Taxes on imports or exports (tariffs) limit purchasing in home country in order to make goods more competitive (protectionism) TNCs (Transnational Corporations) High capital investment, profit maximization and intensive commercial farms to drive down price
