Numerical Modeling of Successional Transitions in Agroecology

Russian Agricultural Sciences, 2020
Time dependences of projective coatings for different ecotopes of soil-plant communities on pastures in arid zones are obtained by numerical dynamic modeling in the form of ordinary differential equations. The models are developed for the dynamics of the functioning of four types of phytocenoses with different interaction schemes.

The Agroecological Transition of Farms in the Ecuadorian Andes Through the Lens of the Main Agroecological Structure

Land Degradation and Development
ABSTRACTMany sectors of society have urged a transition from modern conventional agriculture to more sustainable alternatives. One of the most frequently mentioned is agroecology, due to its potential to improve soil health, promote agrobiodiversity, food sovereignty, and regenerate ecosystem functions. However, complex systems such as farms demand the

The cultural politics of the agroecological transition

Agriculture and Human Values, 2015
Scholarly attention to sustainability transitions is rapidly increasing. This article explores how cultural politics constrain agricultural change. Cultural politics, or conflicting values about appropriate types of agriculture, are an underexplored variable influencing whether or not farmers adopt agroecological methods.

Can Australia transition to an agroecological future?

Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems, 2020
Australia faces seemingly impossible barriers to transitioning to agroecology. Nonetheless, many possibilities for a distinctively Australian agroecology exist.

Territory As A Catalyst For Agroecological Transition

2020
Considered as places of learning and innovation, and a site for alternative andintegrated governance of food systems, territories are often quoted as playing a facilitating rolein agroecological transitions (place-based approach). We tested this hypothesis by analyzingthe territorial governance of the agroecological transition in the Pilat Regional ...
