Editorial Review

Product Description
"This is a superb ethnographic work that can, and should, revolutionize a good deal of anthropology and the philosophy of science. . . . For anyone interested in Latin American traditional agriculture, it will be a 'must read.'"--Eugene Anderson, Professor of Anthropology, University of California, RiversideZapotec farmers in the northern sierra of Oaxaca, Mexico, are highly successful in providing their families with abundant, nutritious food in an ecologically sustainable fashion, although the premises that guide their agricultural practices would be considered erroneous by the standards of most agronomists and botanists in the United States and Europe. In this book, Roberto González convincingly argues that in fact Zapotec agricultural and dietary theories and practices constitute a valid local science, which has had a reciprocally beneficial relationship with European and United States farming and food systems since the sixteenth century.González bases his analysis upon direct participant observation in the farms and fields of a Zapotec village. By using the ethnographic fieldwork approach, he is able to describe and analyze the rich meanings that campesino families attach to their crops, lands, and animals. González also reviews the history of maize, sugarcane, and coffee cultivation in the Zapotec region to show how campesino farmers have intelligently and scientifically adapted their farming practices to local conditions over the course of centuries. By setting his ethnographic study of the Talea de Castro community within a historical world systems perspective, he also skillfully weighs the local impact of national and global currents ranging from Spanish colonialism to the 1910 Mexican Revolution to NAFTA. At the same time, he shows how, at the turn of the twenty-first century, the sustainable practices of "traditional" subsistence agriculture are beginning to replace the failed, unsustainable techniques of modern industrial farming in some parts of the United States and Europe. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
Though it is not widely recognized, modern industrial agriculture plays a major role in the rampant decline in biodiversity in the United States. Habitat destruction and fragmentation, displacement of native species and the introduction of exotic species, persecution of predators, and pollution of all kinds are just a few of its damaging ecological consequences.

Fortunately, a new vision for a more environmentally beneficial and sustainable agriculture is emerging. Such a vision begins with farms that gracefully meld within landscapes, pulsing with a wide range of native species. It combines implementation of landscape-level restoration efforts, natural systems farming research, and the community spirit of farmers' markets and local watershed stakeholders.

Presenting an inspiring look at this new conservation-based agriculture, Farming with the Wild offers vivid profiles of more than thirty innovative farms, ranches, and organizations in the U.S., together with more than one hundred revealing full-color photographs. The result is an on-the-ground picture of a new agrarian movement that aims to provide healthier food to Americans while restoring healthy ecosystems across the country.

5-0 out of 5 stars Conservation Farming : Book Review
Fly across the Midwest or California's Central Valley in a jet, and you would not be mistaken if you thought that farming was bad for diversity. From the air, you would see millions of acres of mono-culture of soybean, corn, hay, wheat, and sugarcane. If you were to fly across the same landscapes, and many others, in a two-seater, say, you would begin to see pockets where farmers and ranchers have rejected this homogeneity. You would find a growing movement of people who not only work the land but also want to protect it. They come from diverse backgrounds and work in diverse ecosystems, but all recognize that their properties can be important sanctuaries of biodiversity.
Over a several-year period, writer Daniel Imhoff traveled across the U.S. to meet with and learn how and why these people have chosen to farm with the wild, as he terms this movement. Mixing beautiful photography with short essays, Imhoff's book is part inspirational and part how-to. He makes clear that no one way is best, that to make working land a haven for plants and animals requires an understanding of local ecology, as well as a lot of work. As Nabhan did in his book, Imhoff shows that for conservation to be successful, it will take a broad mix of people, many of whom have not been tapped for their wisdom and passion.

5-0 out of 5 stars Farming the way it should be
Written for broad audience of "stakeholders" in the food system, from consumers to ranchers, Imhoff has done a great job of highlighting farmers and ranchers who are working to protect the environment and sustain family farmers.These farmers and ranchers are inspirational examples, and show that agriculture doens't have to destroy the planet while it feeds us.Carra's photos offer an enticing complement that gives the book a coffee-table feel. ...
