Let me enumerate the areas of new developments: (1) Changes in producing areas; (2) shifts from home production to purchases; (3) changes is assembly and transportation; (4) shifts from fresh to processed foods; (5) changes in methods of processing, both those that affect the forms in which foods are purchased, and those that do not; (6) changes in packaging; (7) changes in retail store handling; (8) changes in consuming areas including the development of suburbia, farm to nonfarm shifts, and regional movements.
