Summary:
"This book explores the roots and branches of alternative
agricultural ideas in twentieth-century America, showing how
ecological thought has challenged and changed agricultural theory,
practice, and policy from the 1930s to the present. It introduces us
to the people and institutions who forged alternatives to
industrialized agriculture through a deep concern for the enduring
fertility of the soil, a passionate commitment to human health, and a
strong advocacy of economic justice for farmers."--BOOK JACKET.
