sugar policies, and policy reform, the authors conclude that
long-standing government interventions - rooted in
historical trade arrangements, fear of shortages, and
conflicting interests between growers, and sugar mills -

The urban and the rural are increasingly interconnected. Rural areas have become places of consumption, as leisure and recreation have become important functions of rural areas. There are also indications that increased urbanisation even leads to a stronger appreciation of green areas situated far beyond city limits. Rural areas with their highly valued natural amenities nowadays seem increasingly to host urban wellbeing, given the positive relation found between green areas and human wellbeing.

El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la circulación de saberes agrícolas en el sureste productivo del Territorio Nacional de la Pampa durante la década del veinte, haciendo hincapié en el rol de las publicaciones especializadas, ya sea que pertenecieran a la esfera estatal o privada.

However, farming on these rice terraces has low labor productivity, and with the advancing age of the farmers in the mountainous areas, it has become difficult for them to continue farming on the rice terraces. Their abandonment is now noticeable. For this research, one city sustaining the rice terraces viz.

Yet the current situation differs from
2007-2008 in critical respects. First, recent international
price increases are more widespread across agricultural
commodities than in 2008, when price spikes were led by few
grains such as wheat and rice. Second, natural resources are

more binding than in the past and weather induced production
shortfalls are more of a factor now than it was 2008.

Includes the figures and what they tell us: the vast majority of farms in the world today are small and getter smaller; small farms are being squeezed onto less than a quarter of global agricultural land; we’re fast losing farms and farmers in many places, while big farms are getting bigger; despite their scarce and dwindling resources, small farmers continue to be the world’s major food producers; small farms not only produce most of the food, they are also the most productive; most small farmers are women, but their contributions are ignored and marginalised.
