Förlagets beskrivning
In the coming decades the world will need to more than double its food and
feed production, almost all of the increase being needed in developing
countries. This has socioeconomic and biophysical implications. Rural
development needs an eco-regional approach that integrates biophysical and
socioeconomic work on cropping systems, livestock, the environment and natural
resources. This book contains the papers, response papers and discussion report of a
five-day seminar on eco-regional approaches. It assesses the recent progress in
systems approaches applied to eco-regional problems, presenting and discussing
a number of case studies. Future research needs are documented, as well as ways
to improve collaboration between research institutes. The seminar on which the book is based was organized on behalf of the
Directorate General for International Cooperation of the Netherlands Ministry
of Foreign Affairs by the Research Institute for Agrobiology and Soil Fertility
(AB-DLO), the Wageningen Agricultural University (WAU), and the International
Potato Centre (CIP). It was held at the International Service for National
Agricultural Research (ISNAR), and was attended by participants from all CGIAR
centres, among others. This volume contains the papers, response papers and discussion report of a
five-day seminar on eco-regional approaches. It assesses the recent progress in
systems approaches applied to eco-regional problems, presenting and discussing
a number of case studies. Future research needs are documented.
