In a race to prepare for 2064, when the world's population is expected to peak at 9.7 billion, farmers around the world have been incentivized to adopt intensive farming methods, which have degraded farmland, stripped trees, and contributed to the world's greenhouse gas emissions. In The Revolution in Farming , Christopher de Bellaigue travels across continents to explore conservation agriculture through rice farming in India, wheat farming in the UK, agroforestry in Tanzania, coffee farming in Kenya, soya and maize, and mob grazing in Brazil, sheep in Kazakhstan, and using technology to farm underground in London.
