Описание: Stakeholders show a growing interest for organic food and farming (OF&F), which becomes a societal component. Rather than questioning whether OF&F outperforms conventional agriculture or not, the main question addressed in this book is how, and in what conditions, OF&F may be considered as a prototype towards sustainable agricultures.
This first sustained ethnographic study of organic agriculture outside the United States traces its meanings, practices, and politics in two nations typically considered worlds apart: Latvia and Costa Rica. Situated on the frontiers of the European Union and the United States, these geopolitically and economically in-between places illustrate ways that international treaties have created contradictory pressures for organic farmers.
Organic farmers in both countries build multispecies networks of biological and social diversity and create spaces of sovereignty within state and suprastate governance bodies. Organic associations in Central America and Eastern Europe face parallel challenges in balancing multiple identities as social movements, market sectors, and NGOs while finding their place in regions and nations reshaped by world events.

Описание: Intensive farming techniques to increase yield have considerable impact on the environment. Sustainable organic farming is an attempt to curb such harmful effects by introducing microbial fertilizers instead of synthetic chemicals and limiting the use of pesticides and plant growth regulators, which help reduce the burden caused due to intensive farming techniques. This book attempts to assist those interested in this field with the help of researches and case-studies by experts from around the globe on topics such as transgenic crops in sustainable development, genetic modification as a route for delivery of sustainable crop protection, ecosystems and environment, etc. This book will prove to be an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.
