Agriculture is strategically vital to the welfare and national security of all people.
However, over-concentration and overproduction in a relatively small number of food and feed crops have created global problems. Clearly, diversification in agriculture is of high priority. Diversification through the development and use of new or alternative crops and also finding new uses for existing crops offers one of the most promising economic alternatives. Such diversification would greatly assist in the revitalisation of the agricultural industry, and stimulate development of new markets and the full economic potential of agriculture globally.' 'To achieve globally adequate, environmentally and economically sound agricultural production, problems must be solved by the combined efforts of the agricultural industry, policy makers, as well as the consuming public. Urgent needs exist for appropriate cooperation among governments, improved legislation and trade agreements.
