Over the past few months I've been writing a bit about global agriculture for the Times's Green Inc. blog and the International Herald Tribune. It's an intriguing arena, full of explosive ideological and economic rifts that go back decades... and for most of the world, of course, it's a matter of life and death. I plan on doing some field reporting (sorry, terrible pun) on issues like GM crops and the aftermath of the green revolution while I'm in India the next couple of months.
