Neste ensaio defendemos que a agroecologia pode ser considerada um processo de recampesinização contemporâneo, se analisada a partir das suas premissas básicas de integração aos processos cooperativos de produção aliados ao manejo ecológico da terra. Desta forma, o agroecossistema assume lugar central que visa integrar a sustentabilidade na produção agrícola promovendo um contraponto à crescente crise agroambiental.

A survey exploring private farm advisor perspectives of agri-environment schemes: The case of England’s Environmental Stewardship programme

Peer-reviewed publication
Agosto, 2016
Estados Unidos de América

Most stakeholder-based research concerning agri-environmental schemes (AES) derives from work engaging with farmers and land managers. Consequently, the voices and opinions of other actors involved in AES tends to be unrepresented in the wider literature.

The survival of farms requires innovative adaptation and investment to take advantage of the characteristics of the peri-urban environment. In Ontario, Canada, the Provincial Government passed in 2005 the Greenbelt Act that delimits Ontario’s Greenbelt—an area of 1.8 million acres where land is protected from development around the metropolitan region of the Greater Golden Horseshoe. This paper presents research on farm-level analysis of farmers’ investment decision-making aiming at understanding the impact of Ontario’s Greenbelt on farm investment.
