SUMMARY

Through a series of 12 original case studies, prepared by 19 international, multidisciplinary experts, Farming Systems offers a comprehensive comparative examination of world agriculture. The 12 farming systems explored here encompass the broad array of environmental, demographic, and socioeconomic conditions in which agriculture exists--from Amazonian swidden to Hungarian cooperative farms. B.L. Turner II and Stephen B. Brush have provided a three-part classification of the systems based on output intensity, technology employed, and production goals. The contributors bring to their case studies the perspectives of anthropology, economics, geography, and rural sociology.Turner, B. L., II is the author of 'Comparative Farming Systems' with ISBN 9780898627800 and ISBN 089862780X.
