Dr. Nami, for your Agricultural Economics course, I propose "Feedlots' Footprint: Farms Pay the Price." This book explores the hidden costs of large-scale feedlots, exposing their environmental toll and the economic strain placed on smaller farms. We'll delve into the environmental impact of feedlots, analyzing pollution, antibiotic resistance, and greenhouse gas emissions. But "Feedlots' Footprint" goes beyond the environment. The book examines the economic squeeze on small and family farms, analyzing contract farming, rising feed costs, and industry consolidation. We'll see how these factors disadvantage smaller players. However, the book doesn't just highlight problems. It explores solutions, showcasing sustainable alternatives to industrial livestock production and advocating for fair trade and ethical sourcing practices that benefit both farmers and consumers. "Feedlots' Footprint" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in creating a more sustainable and equitable food system.
