Description
This special double issue is now available free online at http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/title~content=t792306860 The special issue is co-edited by Mary Story, PhD, RD, of the University of Minnesota, Michael Hamm, PhD, of Michigan State University, and David Wallinga, MD, of the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy. This special double issue identifies research opportunities to develop successful interventions within agriculture, food, and health systems as well as policies and actions for moving towards and achieving community environments that allow healthier diets and reduced obesity. This dynamic collection of articles is the outcome of a conference held in April 2009 that focused on the food system, food, agriculture, and agriculture policy which are central to a discussion on healthy diets and obesity prevention. More than 80 leading thinkers nationwide from the health, nutrition, obesity, and health policy domains together with those from the sustainable agriculture, economics, and agriculture policy sectors participated in this robust dialog.
