Although crop land per capita will continue to decline, more arable land is available worldwide than previously thought. The example of the use of the Brazilian cerrado, once considered useless, augurs well for the African savannas.
尽管人均作物产量仍将下降,但全球适耕土地数量比先前估计的要多。 比如,巴西塞拉都(cerrado)原本认为无法耕种,但也已经开始使用,这对于非洲稀树草原来说是个福音。 未使用土地储备也存在于南美、中亚和东欧各处。
Food supply has not collapsed (1.5 billion hectares of arable land are being used, but another 2.7 billion hectares are in reserve). Malnourishment has dropped by more than half, from 35% of the world’s population to under 16%.
