February 2004
About this list:
This list of alternatives was compiled using AFSIC reference request files, the subject files in our office, as well as previously compiled lists, most notably "Innovative Farming Idea List," (1987) compiled by Nancy Grudens Schuck, Farming Alternatives Project, Cornell University and "Ideas for Alternative Agricultural Enterprises," (1996) put together by the Missouri Alternatives Center. [See their Website's database of Extension and related on-line publications about alternatives: http://agebb.missouri.edu/mac ]. This list is not comprehensive, but presents some of the more accessible innovations available to farmers.
What can alternative crops and enterprises do for my farm?
The " Diversify Crops to Boost Profits and Stewardship " Bulletin for farmers and agricultural educators is a primer on planning diversification with alternative crops, agroforestry, and cover crops. This Sustainable Agriculture Network resource features "factors to consider before diversifying, specific diversification strategies and expert sources of information."

R. FORD DENISON is a professor and agricultural ecologist in the Department of Agronomy and Range Science at the University of California, Davis. He teaches crop ecology and conducts research on agricultural sustainability and the evolution of cooperation between microbes and plants. From 1993 through 2002, he directed "the world's youngest 100-year experiment" (LTRAS.ucdavis.edu) , tracking the long-term trends that determine sustainability. His research on symbiotic nitrogen fixation, a possible alternative to nitrogen fertilizers, has led to one patent and numerous publications in leading basic and applied journals, from Nature to Field Crops Research . His paper " Darwinian Agriculture : When Can Humans Find Solutions Beyond the Reach of Natural Selection?" points out some limitations both of agricultural biotechnology and of agriculture that mimics natural ecosystems. He has been interviewed on National Public Radio, Science Update (AAAS)

  • MEADOWFOAM

  • Competing Sources
  • Crop Status ...
  • REFERENCES Successful temperate new crops must either fit well into the rotation of established food, feed, or fiber crops, provide a product that is relatively more valuable than the current crop, or be better suited to growing on a given area. Proximity of growers to potential processors (who manufacture the refined product) is key to economic advantage for the new crop over prior raw material sources. In the case of arid industrial crops, the issues of survival in a harsh climate and the cost of water are paramount, while in the higher latitude temperate zones the constraints are frost tolerance, length of growing season, crop response to daylength, water requirement (rain-fed or irrigated), and weather patterns during harvest. This paper examines the current status of several potential crops with an eye toward their requirements for success in temperate zones. Crops that are reaching or have reached active crop status include meadowfoam, fiber flax, and kenaf. Crops that are very promising, but require some further breeding, agronomy, or processing research include lesquerella, cuphea, euphorbia, and vernonia. Crops that are intriguing, but need more study to define their potential and value include grindelia and hesperaloe. Other potential crops, including those with application only in specific situations or those having received limited study and commercialization efforts are also briefly described.
