Abstract
All of us expect good food in adequate quantities. The question is how to reach this aim in the near future with an increasing world population (Table 1). A comparison of past figures with those forecast for the coming years tells us that in the near future the rate of population growth will greatly outpace the available arable land. Dietary energy requirements will increase. Consumption of grain crops will increase although on a smaller scale than in the past. The need for protein products will also continue to soar.
