Say the word “sustainable,” and most people in agriculture agree it means increased profits, sound stewardship of the air, water and soil, and improved quality of life for farming communities. But there are almost as many ways to achieve these goals as there are farms and ranches in America. “What is Sustainable Agriculture?” is an informative introduction to the widely varied landscape of sustainable agriculture. This 12-page publication provides a sampler of best practices—from marketing and community vitality to cover crops and grazing—as well as eight profiles of producers, educators and researchers who have successfully implemented them.
