Agroecology - C. Ronald Carroll - Hardcover

In Agroecology, experts from diverse disciplines define the basic concepts, research methodologies, sociopolitical aspects, and future directions of this rapidly developing field. This unique multidisciplinary review shows how researchers can learn to: develop cost-effective, environmentally sound agricultural practices; prevent the further degradation of such resources as water, land and fossil fuels; create inexpensive agricultural technology for developing countries; deal effectively with social, cultural, and political obstacles to the development of a more productive world agriculture. With today's intense concern over hunger and environmental degradation, Agroecology is essential reading for researchers working in agronomy, horticulture, ecology, botany, rural sociology, agricultural economics, and related disciplines.Carroll, C.
