Beskrivelse af Quinoa
"Quinoa's new status as a superfood has altered the economic fortunes of Quechua farmers in the Andean highlands. Linda Seligmann journeys to the Huanoquite region of Peru to track the mixed blessings brought about by the surging worldwide popularity of the "exquisite grain."

She also looks at the human stories behind the transformation, from the work of quinoa brokers to the ways Huanoquite's men and women navigate the shifts in place and power occurring in the home and their communities. Finally, Seligmann considers how the environmental consequences of mining may impact the Huanoquiteänos' ability to farm quinoa and maintain their established way of life.
