BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE
From 1949-1962, Tussey held various positions at County, State, and Federal levels of the Agricultural Extension Service. From 1962-1966 he was the Branch Chief, Foreign Marketing Branch, Cotton Division, at the American Embassy in Rome, Italy. Starting in 1973 he became the Director, CCC Credit Sales Division, Export Marketing Service, US Department of Agriculture. Starting in 1975 Tussey became the Deputy US Coordinator, World Food Conference, Department of State.
SUMMARY
Tussey listed the World Food Conference concerns, both the problems and the resolutions offering responses. The conference this time is trying to reach 25 years ahead instead of the typical 10. One of his goals is to mute the more dire Malthusian forecasts by showing how humans now stay ahead of population growth and the many means available to continue to do so - provided sufficient political will and decision making.
