alternative agriculture alternative agriculture : A systematic approach to farming intended to reduce agricultural pollution, enhance sustainability, and improve efficiency and profitability. Overall, alternative agriculture emphasizes management practices that take advantage of natural processes (such as nutrient cycles, nitrogen fixation, and pest-predator relationships), improve the match between cropping patterns and agronomic practices on the one hand and the productive potential and physical characteristics of the land on the other, and make selective use of commercial fertilizer and pesticides to ensure production efficiency and conservation of soil, water, energy, and biological resources. Examples of alternative agricultural practices include use of crop rotation, animal and green manures, soil and water conserving tillage systems, such as no-till planting methods, integrated pest management, and use of genetically improved crops and animals. Consonant with sustainable agriculture , alternative agriculture focuses on those farming practices that go beyond traditional or conventional agriculture , though it does not exclude conventional practices that are consistent with the overall system.

The researchers rigorously assessed the diets of more than 100,000 men and women and found that the reduction in risk was nearly twice as great for those whose diet met the new guidelines when compared to those whose eating patterns reflected the current USDA dietary guidelines. The findings appear in the December issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition The USDA measures the benefits of adherence to recommended federal dietary programs such as the Food Guide Pyramid and "Dietary Guidelines for Americans" by using what it calls the Healthy Eating Index (HEI). The HEI scores the foods that are recommended and consumed by individuals. Adherence to the HEI has been associated with a modest reduction in risk for chronic disease. To determine if more specific guidance would further reduce the risk for chronic disease

Description People like to believe in a past golden age of traditional English countryside, before large farms, machinery, and the destruction of hedgerows changed the landscape forever. Yet crops from the past like flax, hemp, and woad, are gradually reappearing in our modern countryside, which may in the past have looked at the same time both more and less familiar than we imagine. Joan Thirsk reveals how the forces which drive our current interest in alternative forms of agriculture a glut of mainstream meat and cereal crops, changing eating habits, the needs of medicine have striking parallels with earlier periods of our history, emphasizing that we can still find solutions to todays problems in the experience of people from the past.

Summer 2002 (v14n2) Technical Reviews Susan S. Andrews, Jeffrey P. Mitchell, Roberto Mancinelli, Douglas L. Karlen, Timothy K. Hartz, William R. Horwath, G. Stuart Pettygrove, Kate M. Scow, and Daniel S. Munk. Agronomy Journal 94:12-23. 2002 Experimental Methods Side-by-side comparisons were established at 11 farms in the fall of 1995 in the western San Joaquin Valley region between Huron and Mendota. Each site consisted of adjacent fields: one conventional and one alternative. Project fields were from 30 to 60 ha each. Consensus among participating farmers and researchers was that cover crop and compost or manure amendments would be used in the alternative field sites, but not in the conventional fields. Soil quality index and statistical analyses Researchers compared the alternative and conventional treatment means for six of the 11 farm sites. These six farms maintained treatment integrity and a commitment to the side-by-side comparisons over the course of the project. The expanded data set collected from a seventh farm in 1998 was used to construct the soil quality index (SQI). Techniques used to develop this index were similar to those previously applied in the Sustainable Agriculture Farming Systems (SAFS) project at the UC Davis campus. To construct the index, the researchers performed standardized principal component analysis of the data.

By Joan Thirsk. (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1997. Pp. x, 355. $47.50.) Thirsk insists that the factors leading to the crises of slumping demand and overproduction have differed considerably in the four periods she surveys. The Black Death and the pestilences that followed it over the next century and a half caused the first of the crises that she identifies: slumping demand. The last, that of the 1970s, came about, in part, from the successes of modern technological farming: overproduction. However different the causes, the reactions and consequences were analogous, and sometimes uncannily so. Even the same crops, like rapeseed, show up in her four different phases of alternative agriculture. Certain ideologies, like vegetarianism (the late Middle Ages excepted), and faddish beliefs, like those in herbal medicine, are seen as routine accompaniments to the emergence of alternative agriculture in the English context.
