摘要

大规模财政投入农业的问题日益受到关注。土地掠夺——在南半球以失去土地的小农为代价获得大片农业用地——以及几乎无处不在的企业农业的兴起——以牺牲家庭农场为代价——这是全球农业金融投资不断增加的方式正在改变世界各地农村地理的两个方面。与此同时,外国对农业土地和企业的所有权增加,农业更加集约化,从而产生有害的环境影响。Stefan Ouma的这本书探讨了全球金融在农业中的作用这一广泛话题,并以新颖的方式通过寻求追踪资金,深入挖掘养老基金,股权投资和农业资产化的世界来做到这一点。这是一种受欢迎的、重要的、创新的方法,有助于扩大我们对日益复杂的农村世界的理解。这本书的正文是为ESG、普通合伙人/有限合伙人、高净值人士和MPMT提供的。作为一本了解全球金融如何重塑农业的书,它超越了简单的介绍,探索了一些复杂的主题,为未来的研究提出了一些重要的问题。它的章节结构反映了这一目标。连续的章节讨论光学(我们如何概念化金融-农业关系),历史;数据;国家的作用、价值观和伦理;投资链的复杂性;从农场大门望出去的景色;以及食品金融期货。在整个讨论过程中,作者参与了金融界(参加投资研讨会,阅读投资数据,采访基金经理等),并在坦桑尼亚和新西兰奥特罗阿进行了两个详细的对比案例研究。这两个地方在历史、环境、政治、社会结构和影响方面显示出农业投资的完全不同的背景。然而,

Farming as Financial Asset: Global Finance and the Making of Institutional Landscapes
The issue of large-scale financial investment in agriculture is of increasing concern. Land grabbing —the acquisition of large tracts of agricultural land in the Global South, often at the expense of dispossessed small farmers—and the almost ubiquitous rise of corporate farming—at the expense of family farms—are two supposed aspects of the way increasing global financial investment in agriculture are transforming rural geographies throughout the world. This is seen to be accompanied by rising foreign ownership of agricultural land and enterprises, and greater intensification of agriculture with consequent harmful environmental effects. This book by Stefan Ouma tackles the broad topic of the role of global finance in agriculture and does so in novel ways by seeking to follow the money and dig deep into the world of pension funds, equity investment, and assetization in agriculture. This is a welcome, important, and innova-tive approach that does much to extend our understandings of increasingly complex rural worlds. The book, at text, is for and one if navigate the ESG, GPs/LPs, HNWIs, MPMT. As a to understand how global finance is reshaping agriculture, excellent and accessible it moves beyond mere introduction to explore some complex themes raise some vital questions for future research. Its chapter structure reflects this objective. Successive chapters address optics (how we conceptualize the finance-farming nexus), history; data; the role of states, values and ethics; the complexity of the investment chains; the view from the farm gate; and food-finance futures. Throughout, the discussions draw on the author's engagement with the world of finance (attending investment seminars, reading investment data, interviews with fund managers etc.), and two detailed con-trasting case studies in Tanzania and Aotearoa New Zealand. These two places reveal quite different contexts for investment in agriculture in terms of history, environments, politics, social structures, and impacts. Yet

Their goal is to publish high-quality studies that are both theoretically robust and grounded in empirical evidence, contributing to our understanding of the geographic factors and consequences of economic processes. It welcome submissions on a wide range of topics that provide primary evidence for significant theoretical interventions, offering key insights into important economic, social, development, and environmental issues. To ensure the highest quality publications, all submissions undergo a rigorous peer-review process with at least three external referees and an editor. Economic Geography has been owned by Clark University since 1925 and plays a central role in supporting the global activities of the field, providing publications and other forms of scholarly support. The journal is published five times a year in January, March, June, August, and November.
