Abstract

This chapter unfolds in a manner that is based on the three schools of thought, that is some of the current and future AMD impacts are inevitable because of the extent of the AMD challenge, the nature and extent of the AMD challenge is such that it requires concerted effort by a divided stakeholder system and there are innovations that can be used to mediate the production, spread and impact of AMD.
