Download or read book Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education in the Field written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1991-02-01 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest is growing in sustainable agriculture, which involves the use of productive and profitable farming practices that take advantage of natural biological processes to conserve resources, reduce inputs, protect the environment, and enhance public health. Continuing research is helping to demonstrate the ways that many factorsâ€"economics, biology, policy, and traditionâ€"interact in sustainable agriculture systems. This book contains the proceedings of a workshop on the findings of a broad range of research projects funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The areas of study, such as integrated pest management, alternative cropping and tillage systems, and comparisons with more conventional approaches, are essential to developing and adopting profitable and sustainable farming systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change. Habitat loss. Soil erosion. Groundwater depletion. Toxins in our food. Inhumane treatment of farm animals. Increasing farm worker exploitation. Hunger and malnutrition in the midst of plenty. What will it take for farmers in the United States to embrace sustainable practices? Michael Mayerfeld Bell’s Farming for Us All first tackled this question twenty years ago, providing crucial insight into how the structure of US agriculture created this situation and exploring, by contrast, the practices of farmers who are working together to radically change how they think, learn, and grow. This updated edition of his now-classic work reflects on the lessons learned over the past two decades. Constrained by an oppressive nexus of markets, regulations, subsidies, and technology, farmers find themselves undermining their own economic and social security as well as the security of the land. Bell turns to Practical Farmers of Iowa (PFI), that state’s largest sustainable-agriculture group. He traces how PFI creates an agriculture that engages others—farmers, researchers, officials, and consumers—in a common conversation about what agriculture could look like. Through dialogue, PFI members crossbreed knowledge, discovering pragmatic solutions to help crops grow in ways that sustain families, communities, societies, economies, and environments. Farming for Us All makes the case that for sustainable farming to flourish, new social relations are as important to cultivate as new crops. This book is necessary—and hopeful—reading for anyone concerned about the present and future of food and farming.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agriculture, Theoretical and Practical: A Textbook of Mixed Farming for Large and Small Farmers and for Agricultural Students I comply very willingly with the request of Professor Wrightson and Mr. Newsham, that I should write a few lines of introduction to their textbook on Agriculture, Theoretical and Practical. It may be said, and with some force, that there is no lack of manuals and other excellent works on the subject already in existence, but, while it is easy to obtain exhaustive information on some one phase of farming practice, and on the sciences affecting it, there are few, if any, up-to-date textbooks holding precisely the position this book is intended to fill. A technical manual on the theory or practice of agriculture, designed with a definite aim, may fill two very useful and necessary functions; namely, those connected with the instruction of pupils at Agriculture Colleges, Farm Schools, or similar institutions, and those attached to a book of reference which the farmer or small-holder may consult, when, from time to time, he is in need of advice based on practical experience and scientific knowledge. The school purpose and the farm purpose, though allied, are quite distinct, and it is the aim of the authors to provide a book that will serve both. There is another reason for hoping that such a book will find a place both in the classroom, and the houses of small as well as the large farmers. We are just at the beginning of a great movement in agricultural matters. Small-holdings may be expected to increase in number in suitable districts, and Farm Institutes, under the encouragement of the Board of Agriculture and financial support from the Development Fund, will no doubt spread over the country.

Download or read book Effective Farming written by H. O. Sampson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Effective Farming: A Text-Book for American Schools To meet the new demands, many texts are appearing. The present book is one of the contributions to this rapidly enlarging field, drawn from several years' experience as a teacher of agriculture in both high school and college. It aims to present instruction in practical agriculture in such a way as to be read ily understood by both pupil and general reader, and to be directly adaptable, at the same time, to the needs of the class room and laboratory. Agriculture is a subject of great variety. One person cannot cover it all. As indicated in certain parts of the text, some of the matter has been compiled from publications of the United States Department of Agriculture and the state experiment stations. This form of compilation suggests the kind of valuable information that can be gleaned from these publications. Too few teachers realize the great extent of practical teaching, material in these bulletins and circulars.
