Book Synopsis
Why is it that food prices are so high that millions of South African families go hungry, while the prices paid to farmers for that same food are so low that many cannot stay in business? Why are the people who produce food – farmworkers - among the most insecure of all? An Empty Plate analyses the state of the South African agri-food system.
