Methods and Procedures for Building Sustainable Farming Systems

This urgent publication surveys the latest research and methodologies combining efficiency in agricultural food production with sustainability in the same systems. Growing pressures on food production seem contrapuntal to the ever-stronger imperatives of sustainability. How can agriculture balance successes in both productivity and ecology? Sustainability is a dynamic concept, seeking to achieve a balance—in space and time—of environmental, economic and social factors. Thus, farming systems are faced with contradictory demands for success: economic performance and social equity have to be maximized, while the environment and its natural resources need to be protected.

 

Showing how the method of sustainability assessment plays a key role in choosing the best agricultural productive mode, this book guides the reader through the process of selecting, from among the various approaches for building farming systems, the method of decision-making that will result in the most appropriate outcome, given the context. Case studies hail from polities as diverse as Portugal and Canada, Argentina and Lebanon. The work thus offers a valuable critical survey of the assessment methods that account for sustainability and economics, and which have developed considerably in the last two decades. The heterogeneous approaches covered here make this volume appropriate for consultation in a wide variety of social, political and geographical contexts.

SEMINÁRIO

Comunicar em Bio

           Práticas de informação, formação e extensão na agricultura biológica

Auditório da Biblioteca da UTAD, 23 de Novembro de 2012

 

Organização: CETRAD e Edibio, com o apoio da APH

Ideia geral: A comunicação é uma dimensão fundamental na promoção da agricultura biológica, frequentemente subestimada. Entendida de forma ampla, incorpora um conjunto diversificado de práticas de informação, formação e extensão, envolvendo públicos muito diversos, desde os produtores e outros operadores, aos técnicos, estudantes de agricultura, consumidores de produtos bio, comunicadores profissionais e sociedade em geral. Assim, no Seminário procurar-se-ão analisar experiências e práticas de comunicação, com destaque para a extensão realizada por serviços públicos e privados, a animação pedagógica e técnica de hortas escolares e comunitárias, a divulgação junto de consumidores (em feiras e lojas, na internet), o trabalho com a restauração, e as iniciativas editoriais de carácter técnico.

Objectivos: Trocar experiência, analisar práticas, sensibilizar operadores e organizações para a importância da comunicação no quadro do desenvolvimento e promoção da agricultura biológica.

Públicos: Operadores de agricultura biológica, técnicos de serviços públicos e de associações, educadores, formadores, investigadores e estudantes do ensino superior.

Local: Auditório da Biblioteca Central da UTAD.

Inscrição: A participação no Seminário é gratuita.
