Bringing It to the Table: On Farming and Food

Bringing It to the Table: On Farming and Food

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Berry, Wendell / Pollan, Michael, PUBLISHER: Counterpoint LLC, Only a farmer could delve so deeply inong>toong> ong>theong> origins of food, and only a wrong>itong>er of Wendell Berry's caliber could convey ong>itong> wong>itong>h such conviction and eloquence. Long before organic produce was available at your local supermarket, Berry was farming wong>itong>h ong>theong> purong>itong>y of food in mind. For ong>theong> last five decades, Berry has embodied mindful eating through his land practices and his wrong>itong>ing. In recognong>itong>ion of that influence, Michael Pollan here offers an introduction ong>toong> this wonderful collection. Drawn from more than thirty years of work, this collection joins bestsellers ong>Theong> Omnivore's Dilemma, by Pollan, and Animal, Vegeong>tableong>, Miracle, by Barbara Kingsolver, as essential reading for anyone who cares about what ong>theong>y eat. ong>Theong> essays address such concerns as: How does organic measure up against locally grown? What are ong>theong> differences between small and large farms, and how does that affect what you put on your dinner ong>tableong>? What can you do ong>toong> support sustainable agriculture? A progenong>itong>or of ong>theong> Slow Food movement, Wendell Berry reminds us all ong>toong> take ong>theong> time ong>toong> understand ong>theong> basics of what we ingest. "Eating is an agricultural act," he wrong>itong>es. Indeed, we are all players in ong>theong> food economy.

Class Dynamics of Agrarian Change

Class Dynamics of Agrarian Change

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bernstein, Henry, PUBLISHER: Kumarian Press, Development processes are never neutral. ong>Theong>y impact various groups and classes of people differently. A high food price may benefong>itong> some rich peasants who produce and sell food surplus, but ong>itong> may disadvantage landless rural laborers. A project on irrigation may benefong>itong> those who own ong>theong> land, but not ong>theong> landless tenants. Nowadays, official documents by governments and development agencies tend ong>toong> lump different groups of people inong>toong> vague categories like 'rural poor'. This might be useful in some cases, but in large part this thinking can harm ong>theong> poorest of ong>theong> poor. "Agrarian Change ong>Toong>day" demonstrates ong>theong> continuing relevance of class analysis in understanding development processes and outcomes. ong>Itong> shows clearly and accessibly how ong>theong> argument for 'ong>bringingong> class back in' provides an alternative ong>toong> inherong>itong>ed conceptions of ong>theong> agrarian question on one hand, and ong>toong> widespread notions of 'people of ong>theong> land', 're-peasantization', and so on, on ong>theong> oong>theong>r. ong>Itong> illustrates what is at stake in different ways of thinking about class dynamics and ong>theong> effects of agrarian change in ong>toong>day's globalized world.

The One-Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming

The One-Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fukuoka, Masanobu / Korn, Larry / Lappe, Frances Moore, PUBLISHER: New York Review of Books, Call ong>itong> "Zen and ong>theong> Art of Farming" or a "Long>itong>tle Green Book," Masanobu Fukuoka's manifesong>toong> about farming, eating, and ong>theong> limong>itong>s of human knowledge presents a radical challenge ong>toong> ong>theong> global systems we rely on for our food. At ong>theong> same time, ong>itong> is a spirong>itong>ual memoir of a man whose innovative system of cultivating ong>theong> earth reflects a deep faong>itong>h in ong>theong> wholeness and balance of ong>theong> natural world. As Wendell Berry wrong>itong>es in his preface, ong>theong> book "is valuable ong>toong> us because ong>itong> is at once practical and philosophical. ong>Itong> is an inspiring, necessary book about agriculture because ong>itong> is not just about agriculture." Trained as a scientist, Fukuoka rejected both modern agribusiness and centuries of agricultural practice, deciding instead that ong>theong> best forms of cultivation mirror nature's own laws. Over ong>theong> next three decades he perfected his so-called "do-nothing" technique: commonsense, sustainable practices that all but eliminate ong>theong> use of pesticides, fertilizer, tillage, and perhaps most significantly, wasteful effort. Wheong>theong>r you're a guerrilla gardener or a kong>itong>chen gardener, dedicated ong>toong> slow food or simply looking ong>toong> live a healthier life, you will find something here--you may even be moved ong>toong> start a revolution of your own.
