摘要：Global linkages in the food system are mo-way streets reaching into new markets and transporting new inputs, new technologies, new business relationships, and new participants into the food system. These linkages help create both highly competitive and interdependent new global and U.S. food systems. The U.S. system is setting new standards of operating efficiency and environmentally sound production as it serves global consumer needs for food, feed, fuel, and pharmaceuticals.
