520 | _aFrom Grain to Nature is an attempt to narrate an "alternative version" of the origin of Philippine environmental discourse via the social biography of its most important cultural crop-rice. By tracing the discursive events that led to the genetic evolution of this crop, Dennis Erasga weaves a story of rice using a triptych of images-rice as a political grain, a scientific seed, and a virtual metaphor of nature-each accompanied by three distinct yet overlapping discourses, creating a new level of consciousness that problematizes the relationship of humans and nature in pursuit of a national development agenda.
