Product Information
Much recent 'scientific' agricultural research has failed to build upon the valuable experiences and lessons learnt from farmers, in combating problems faced in agriculture. Biological and Cultural Diversity presents, for the first time, cases of indigenous experimentation as well as the benefits in terms of rural development of new partnerships between farmers and formal research. Development workers, agricultural researchers and others concerned about rural poverty, agricultural sustainability and local resource management will find this book highly relevant and of value to their work.
