Andrew,
I do not know of recent document of the kind you request. The longer
historical perspective (through the mid-20th century) is taken up in
Tucker, Richard P. 2000. Insatiable Appetite. The United States and
the ecological degradation of the tropical world. Berkeley:

Cheers,

Subject: RE: Vegan and Environmental Impact
I know that US (also Canadian) agricultural exports have increased
substantially since the 1960s. Does anyone know of any sources that
document the impact of agricultural imports on small producers. I’m
particularly interested in finding sources that could provide more
of an overview of this as a global trend, as opposed to single case
studies. I know Mike Davis talks about this in Planet of Slums, as
a factor pushing rapid urbanization in the global South, but I
can’t think of any others...
