Аннотация: "This book focuses on the latest research in conservation agriculture (CA), with an emphasis on the applicability of results worldwide. Using South Asia as a case study, it examines the history and current state of CA regionally and globally, and explores the long-term impacts the adoption of CA practices has on the livelihoods, agricultural production, gender equity, and regional economic development of rural societies. This inclusive framework is achieved via interdisciplinary analysis at scales ranging from the household level to regional and national levels, and contributions by multidisciplinary and multinational CA researchers and experts. The book, consisting of 12 chapters, provides a comprehensive analysis of the social, environmental, and economic factors that impact CA practice, and estimates the magnitude of such impacts, over the long term."--Abstract

Аннотация: This book provides information on agri-entrepreneurship from various authors' work in conflict areas (particularly Mindanao in the Philippines), transitional economies and poor countries. The book begins with a comparison of general entrepreneurs with agri-entrepreneurs. The next chapters discuss at some length how entrepreneurial skills training programmes require adjustments and modifications based on local knowledge, culture, the natural environment, and human-induced events due to unpredictable circumstances. In most examples presented, the experiences have been with a youth audience. Farmer innovation behaviour and technology transfer are also addressed, among others. The book has 12 chapters and a subject index
