"Images in this collection are part of a 2008 series titled “The Food Chain” that I took while on assignment for The New York Times. In depth studies of assorted food production issues in 3 countries included palm oil shortages in Malaysia, inflated fertilizer prices in Vietnam, and the effect of drought on Australia’s livestock and rice production."
Those remarks by Justin Mott set the stage for his photo reportage, International: Food Production, now appearing on Gaia Photos, a new international photography source comprised of 41 photojournalists from around the world whose mission is to promote quality and diversity in documentary photography.
