Abstract
The recent predictions, that per capita food production will decline, are consistent with the basic classical argument of the early 1800’s that the growth rate of the world population tends to exceed that of food production. These views are founded on presumptions of major constraints to increasing crop yields and a continuing high rate of world population growth.2 The alleged constraints to food production growth, however, give little recognition to the diversity of the food-population problems among different economies of the world, let alone take account of the economic factors which affect the incentive to reduce food production costs.
