We've talked about sustainable agriculture and organic farming and who knows what else. I've been able to pull some meaning from what's been said in class and in the textbook from the context in which it was used, but still did not have a clear definition for the concept. What are the overlaps? What is involved?
So, I went looking. The Appropriate Technology Transfer for Rural Areas (ATTRA) is much more than a scary name. It is a resource for the curious and involved. By going to http://www.attra.org/fundamental.html you can click on an URL to read the organization's Sustainable Agriculture: An Introduction. This small booklet provides a very high level over view behind the principles for sustainable agriculture.
