150. What Is Sustainable Agriculture? What is Sustainable agriculture? December 1997. agriculture has changed dramatically, especially since the end of World War II. Food http://www.sarep.ucdavis.edu/concept.htm

Home Site Map Calendar Search ... Webmaster What is Sustainable Agriculture? Concept Themes Farming and Natural Resources Plant Production Practices Animal Production Practices December 1997 A griculture has changed dramatically, especially since the end of World War II. Food and fiber productivity soared due to new technologies, mechanization, increased chemical use, specialization and government policies that favored maximizing production. These changes allowed fewer farmers with reduced labor demands to produce the majority of the food and fiber in the U.S. Although these changes have had many positive effects and reduced many risks in farming, there have also been significant costs.Prominent among these are topsoil depletion, groundwater contamination, the decline of family farms, continued neglect of the living and working conditions for farm laborers, increasing costs of production, and the disintegration of economic and social conditions in rural communities. A growing movement has emerged during the past two decades to question the role of the agricultural establishment in promoting practices that contribute to these social problems. Today this movement for sustainable agriculture is garnering increasing support and acceptance within mainstream agriculture. Not only does sustainable agriculture address many environmental and social concerns, but it offers innovative and economically viable opportunities for growers, laborers, consumers, policymakers and many others in the entire food system.

NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Merlyn Carlson, Director Ag Calendar Contact Us News Releases Public Service Announcements ... Administration Welcome to NDA Welcome to the Nebraska Department of Agriculture's Home Page. I'm glad you have taken the time to learn more about our agency and Nebraska's diverse agriculture industry. Nebraska is a world-class leader in producing a high-quality, abundant, and an affordable food supply, made possible by our state's farmers and ranchers. The products that are raised here are diverse, and representative of the ingenuity of Nebraska producers to address the varied climate and geology found in this state. Field crops, like corn and soybeans, fair particularly well in the rich, fertile farmlands of the Platte Valley, but can be found in most parts of the state. Producers also raise grain sorghum, mostly in the south; potatoes in several areas that have pockets of sandy soil; and wheat, sugarbeets, and dry edible beans in the more arid Panhandle and southwest. While some crops depend on timely rains for success, Nebraska is fortunate to have an abundance of water. About 8 million acres of Nebraska's field crops benefit from irrigation, through the nearly 24,000 miles of streams and rivers, numerous reservoirs, and vast aquifers that underlie most of the state. Our animal industry is also strong. Cattle can be found in all of Nebraska's 93 counties, and thousands of cows and calves spend their spring and summer grazing in the rolling, lush pastures of the north central Sandhills region. Swine, dairy cattle, and poultry also are in abundance and are generally raised in the more diversified, eastern part of the state.

How Agriculture Came to Central Europe Peter Bogucki School of Engineering and Applied Science Princeton University Princeton, NJ 08544-5263 USA bogucki@pucc.princeton.edu Paper presented at the annual meeting for the Society for American Archaeology, Minneapolis, May 1995. Please do not circulate or quote until publication in final form. Introduction Agriculture came to central Europe somewhat over 7,000 years ago. In the last century of archaeological research, we have been able to establish the archaeological record of these communities in some detail and have good, but not perfect, control over the chronology. The "how" and "why" of the establishment of agricultural communities in central Europe has been much more elusive. In the millennia that preceded agriculture in this region, postglacial climatic conditions and vegetation had been established, and by the sixth millennium B.C., central Europe enjoyed somewhat wetter and warmer conditions than today, by about 2 degrees centigrade. The forested terrain sheltered modern forest fauna along with bands of postglacial foragers. Within the upland basins, there was one habitat that was of greatest interest to the early farming populations. This was the valleys of the smaller streams which drained patches of the loess. Loess is fertile but dry, and these stream valleys were oases of moistness from runoff from the adjacent watersheds and from upstream. Early farming populations settled in these habitats along the smaller rivers and creeks. In the lowlands of the North European Plain, there was also one very important habitat. This was among the chains and clusters of lakes left in meltwater valleys and dead-ice features that interrupt patches of ground moraine in several parts of the plain. In some respect, these features are analogues of the upland creeks, in that they are moist habitats in the midst of drier areas of fertile soil.
