Abstract Ken Giller, professor in Plant Production Systems at WUR, adressed the issue of land sharing or land sparing in his speech at the Opening Academic Year. The focus of Gillers work is smallholder farming in sub-Saharan Africa where trends contrast starkly with Europe. The food needs of the rapidly growing African population have been met by massive expansion of the area under agriculture and by food imports. Giller highlighted some examples from Africa and Europe that relate to the land sharing and land sparing debate and highlight some of the complexities. | ||
