abundant and quality food production, preserving exploited ecosystems and their
inhabitants, creating jobs and incomes, and contributing to reducing the gap in living
standards that has been widening so much in the last decades? In trying to answer
these questions and to light the way for decision makers as far as possible, it has
become necessary to compare the many forms of farming found in each region
or country of the world. But this comparison must not be seen through only by
means of structural criteria made accessible to researchers through the statistical
machinery. It must concern current processes, past and current trajectories as well as
their methods of differentiation. It must be able to explain these evolutions and give
them meaning. Finally, it must also concern their results as regards quantitative and
qualitative production, the creation of wealth and income as well as the preservation
or creation of jobs, and from the point of view of forms of ecosystem artificialization
and their consequences.... |
