Oh, and I should mention the book 1491, which explored what life on the Americas was probably like before Columbus. I mention it here because many of the farming practices of the ancient American natives (north and south) are being slowly uncovered, and some are darned interesting. In fact, if the estimates are correct, scholars might have well under-estimated the pre-Columbian native population of each continent by a billion.
Farming techniques that could support two billion extra mouths would be good to implement, no?
