Profitability Analysis of Zero Tillage among Smallholder Farm Households in the Karak Region of Jordan
There is rich literature on the biophysical benefits of zero tillage (ZT) while that on its economic benefits, especially in the context of small and medium-scale farmers, is scanty. Using a combination of Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and Endogenous Switching Regression (ESR) models and a case study from a large...

Traditional fallows support resilient farming on semi-arid sandy soils
The arid southern highlands of the Bolivian Andes are a harsh environment for even the most hardened farmers. The ‘quinoa boom’ and the move to mechanisation have led to shortened fallows and a drastic drop in soil organic matter. The dry sandy soils and the natural vegetation they support are...

Moldova fights back against pests
Competition between farmers and pests has been fierce in Moldova. As pests and diseases continued to affect agriculture, it became clear that farmers lacked the knowledge and capacity in crop and pest management to prevent and manage outbreaks. In response, FAO and Moldova’s Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry recently...

Organic Academy - Training Programme for Consultants and Agricultural School Teachers
DK aims to double its organic agricultural land by 2020, which involves a shift of 18 000 ha/year, far from being reached. Organic agriculture improved during recent decades, but this knowledge has not always been passed on to agricultural schools and consultancies. The risk is that new generations taking over...

What are the effects of agricultural management on soil organic carbon in boreo-temperate systems?
Soils contain the largest stock of organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems and changes in soil C stocks may significantly affect atmospheric CO2. A significant part of soil C is present in cultivated soils that occupy about 35 % of the global land surface. Agricultural intensification has led to practices that...

Ecosystem-based adaptation for smallholder farmers
Definitions, opportunities and constraints
Despite the growing interest in Ecosystem-based Adaptation, there has been little discussion of how this approach could be used to help smallholder farmers adapt to climate change, while ensuring the continued provision of ecosystem services on which farming depends. Here we provide a framework for identifying which agricultural practices could...

Organic Agriculture and Healthy Soils
Soils are a non-renewable resource on which 95% of our food supply depends. Short-sighted chemical fertilizer applications in conventional farming are depleting soils at an alarming rate. Instead of using potent chemicals that degrade soil, organic farmers continuously give back to the soil, maintaining soil health and fertility for future...

Organic Agriculture & Pesticides
The real solution to our pest and weed problems lies in non-toxic, ecological methods of agriculture, not in pulling the pesticide trigger. In organic systems, farms are managed to maintain and build soil fertility, improving the overall health of microbes, plants and animals as one ecosystem.

From slash and burn to ‘slash and mulch’
In semi-arid cropping regions of West Africa, fallow periods are getting shorter. As land becomes more scarce, farmers are not able to give their soils enough time to rest. This is leading to depletion of soil organic matter, severely threatening soil fertility and damaging soil structure. In the worst cases,...

Mulching to control soil erosion in Dominica
The objective of mulching is to protect the soil from the impacts of heavy rainfalls, storms, and droughts, while providing complementary benefits, such as the reduction of weed growth and water loss, and the increase of soil moisture, microbial action, organic matter and nutrient content. This practice helps in the...
