RESOURCES"

Introduction:

From the standpoint of recovery from the war, the problem


of the food resources of the world is one of special interest.
With full recognition of the importance of agricultural raw
materials for industrial use, attention is here confined to
foodstuffs, feeding stuffs, and farm animals. It seems
simplest to proceed with the discussion topically rather
than chronologically. Wherever comparisons are made
between pre-war and present positions, allowance for
change in population has been made in accordance with the
somewhat fragmentary data available in official records.
The definition of the food resources of the world must
include terms both of statics and dynamics. The food
resources are a composite of the goods (the foodstuffs) and
the services in commerce and distribution through which
these are made available for consumption. It is easy to
overemphasize the goods, to undervalue the services. The
Great War effected a decline of production in Europe and
Russia, a distortion of production elsewhere. The services
in commerce were directly perverted in Europe and less
directly, though still effectually, elsewhere. Post-war
reconstruction includes recovery from direct and
indirect effects on production and restoration of the
appropriate services in commerce. The purpose of
this article is to sketch in broad outlines the war
injuries and the post-war recoveries, and to indicate
that the processes of production have made relatively
more rapid recovery than the processes of commerce.
As the war developed, it affected, to some extent, the
forces engaged in ravitaillement in practically all
countries of the world. The specific injuries may be
described and given a qualitative appraisal, but not a
quantitative estimation. World statistics on food
production, inadequate at the best, fell into
disorganization during the war. The forces tending
towards recovery are open to qualitative appraisal,
but again cannot be stated in quantitative terms, for
reasons of deficiencies in statistical data. It is,
however, possible to formulate an appropriate
statement of the present position, as contrasted with
that of 1914.

TYPES OF FOOD RESOURCES


1.Forest resources
2.Ocean
3.Animals

FOREST RESOURCES: What can we get


from the forest?
Latex Rubber Gloves. Washing the dishes
or a trip to the dentist wouldn't be the
same without latex rubber gloves. ...
Sponges. A soft and squishy product like a
sponge is made from wood fibers? ...
Wine Corks. Did you know there's a
difference between a cork tree and a cork
oak?
Chewing
gum. ...
Car wax. ...
Hair Dye. ...
Chocolate.
OCEAN
RESOURCES:
Seafood is any
form of sea life
regarded as
food by
humans.
Seafood prominently includes fish and
shellfish. Shellfish include various species
of molluscs, crustaceans, and
echinoderms. Historically, sea mammals
such as whales and dolphins have been
consumed as food, though that happens to
a lesser extent in modern times. Edible
sea plants, such as some seaweeds and
microalgae, are widely eaten as seafood
around the world, especially in Asia (see
the category of sea vegetables). In North
America, although not generally in the
United Kingdom, the term "seafood" is
extended to fresh water organisms eaten
by humans, so all edible aquatic life may
be referred to as
seafood. For the
sake of

completeness, this article includes all


edible aquatic life.
ANIMAL RESOURCES:Animal source
foods (ASF) include many food item that
comes from an animal source such as
meat, milk, eggs, cheese and yogurt.
Many individuals do not consume ASF or
consume little ASF by either personal
choice or necessity as ASF may not be
accessible or available to these people.
