Nông nghiệp Nhiệt đới và Bệnh Nhân: Phức tạp sinh thái Đưa ra Nghiên cứu Challeng Chương này đề cập đến một sự mâu thuẫn rõ ràng: đầy đủ, dinh dưỡng thực phẩm cần thiết cho sức khỏe con người, nhưng sản xuất nông nghiệp hiện đại nhiều vùng nhiệt đới thiết lập được liên kết với tăng nguy cơ bệnh. Trớ trêu này liên quan đến việc cơ bản sản xuất và quá trình sinh thái. Nó là điều hiển nhiên mà agroecosystems xuất phát từ tương tác xã hội và kinh tế phức tạp ảnh hưởng đến cách thức mà con người thay đổi và khai. | Chapter 9 Tropical Agriculture and Human Disease Ecological Complexities Pose ResearCh Challenges Mark L.

This irony involves fundamental production and ecological processes. It is evident that agroecosystems derive from complex social and economic interactions that influence the manner in which humans alter and exploit their environments. Many of these transformations produce unintended modifications that affect important ecological links among people wild and domestic animals nondomesticated plants natural and synthetic toxins or diverse microorganisms. Often such changes produce consequences for human well-being that counteract possible benefits from increased food production. Certain of these unintended ill-health effects are well understood and easily prevented such as the direct toxic effects of agricultural pesticides on people. Others are less obvious and not easily anticipated .
