      abstract = {The year 2022 is the 50th anniversary of Alfred Crosbys  celebrated book - The Columbian Exchange: Biological and  Cultural Consequences of 1492. In the book, Crosby was the  first to discuss the impact that the Spanish and Portuguese  colonial period had on world agriculture and human culture.  How the crops of the world became homogenized, and how an  indigenous culture was destroyed by disease after Columbus  landed. His landmark study broke new ground in its broad  conceptualization of the Atlantic exchange. Building on  what Crosby so succinctly and brilliantly presented, the  main goal of this new work is to present the depth of  information that has emerged since "The Columbian Exchange"  and to discuss more fully the development of crops and  agriculture before and after the Iberian contact. It  follows the journey of crops and livestock in the Old and  New Worlds and ends with their distribution in todays  world.},
