Farmers' bounty: locating crop diversity in the contemporary world / Brush, S.B. (2004)  

Public ISBD Titre : Farmers' bounty: locating crop diversity in the contemporary world Type de document : livre Auteurs : Brush, S.B. Editeur : New Haven, Connecticut : Yale University Press Année de publication : 2004 Collection : Yale agrarian studies Importance : 327 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-300-10049-5 Note générale : 2 ex.; ISBN-10 : 0-300-10049-3 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Crops  Diversification  Germplasm Résumé : Biological diversity is as crucial in agriculture as it is in nature, and it is equally important to the economic health of both industrial and nonindustrial societies. This book offers a sweeping assessment of crop diversity and the potential for its preservation. Stephen B. Brush develops a framework for investigating biological diversity in agriculture that focuses on the knowledge and practice of farmers, and he shows how this human ecology perspective can be applied to three global issues that affect crop resources. Brush defines the dimensions of crop diversity and outlines the essential questions surrounding it. He describes the techniques used to maintain diversity in major crops of three cradles of agriculture in which he has worked: potatoes in the Peruvian Andes, maize in Mexico, and wheat in Turkey. Finally, he explores the policy issues surrounding genetic erosion of crop varieties, conservation of crop diversity, and ownership of genetic resources.
