Values of Agrarian Landscapes Across Europe and North America

Most people know agrarian landscapes by what they produce—whether it’s the corn and soybeans of the American Midwest or the olives of the Mediterranean. But agrarian landscapes are vital in countless other ways, and as the world’s farmland continues to shrink, these values can no longer be taken for granted. Values of Agrarian Landscapes Across Europe and North America calls attention to the crucial roles that farmland plays in a variety of regions. For instance, we discover the role of farmland in a region’s cultural heritage, along with its job of maintaining biodiversity and preserving a beautiful, undeveloped landscape.Terwan, Paul is the author of 'Values of Agrarian Landscapes Across Europe and North America', published 2004 under ISBN 9789054391470 and ISBN 9054391472.
