The food production and distribution system in the Western world is an incredible marvel. With modern advancements, food production has expanded beyond population growth and continues to do so. In 1950, farmers in North America averaged 40 bushels of corn per acre. Today, those same fields have yields surpassing 180 bushels per acre. Soybean, wheat, canola, and other staples have seen similar rises in yields. Meat and dairy production have also greatly increased.
