| This paper describes a comparison on farmers’ participation in farmers’ organisations and attempts to explain why they prefer to carry out production and marketing activities by themselves. It also examines the implications of the findings for rural extension and related services. A total of 122 interviews were conducted with different categories of farmers and with the extension workers. The comparative analysis of two case studies (Cruz Alta and Pantano) showed that socio-economic characteristics were not very significant in determining the level of farmers’ participation in farmers’ organizations in Minas Gerais. The ability of managers emerged as one of the most important factors in the success or failure of farmers’ organizations. The presence of... |

| The scope of this paper is to describe, evaluate, and forecast fishing trip choices of the Bay of Biscay pelagic fleet using random utility modeling (RUM). First, alternative fishing trip choices of this fleet were identified using multivariate statistical methods based on species landings weighted by value and defined as distinct fishing activity or fisheries (termed metiers). A RUM was specified, which included trip components as attributes during the period 20012004 ( a lagged percentage of the value per unit of effort of the main species caught, total value per unit of effort, and inertia in terms of changes from one metier to another). For the main metiers, the proportion of correct effort allocation is 90% during the calibration period of 2001-2004.... |

| La efectividad de manejo se entiende como el grado en que los objetivos de manejo de un área protegida han sido cumplidos. Antes del 1993 no existían en la literatura trabajos sobre este tema, y solo se encontraban artículos que trataban sobre los objetivos y beneficios de las áreas protegidas vistos desde una perspectiva biológica solamente. En el presente trabajo se desarrolla una nueva metodología para evaluar la efectividad de manejo de un área marina protegida y la misma se aplica a un estudio de caso real. La metodología propuesta constituye una herramienta interdisciplinaria que pudiera mejorar el manejo de las áreas marinas protegidas. Esta metodología constituye un paso adelante que se nutre de las contribuciones anteriores y provee un nuevo... |

| O presente documento foi elaborado por ocasiao do I ENCONTRO SOBRE MENAJO DE PRAGAS DO TOMATEIRO, promovido pelo CPATSA-EMBRAPA, em Petrolina, PE, no periodo de 25 a 28 de setembro de 1989. Esse evento teve como objetivo, reunir tecnicos ligados a pesquisa, ensino, extensao e a empresas particulares, para tratas dos problemas entomologicos relacionados a cultura do tomate a nivel nacional, visando tracar diretrizes apra um programa sobre menajo integrado das pragas do tomateiro, notadamente apra a regiao do submedio Sao Francisco. Apresenta as medidas a serem adotadas, a curto, medio e longo prazos, para o problema da traca do tomateiro Scrobipalpula absoluta, a mais importante praga da cultura do tomate nessa regiao. |

| Many social-ecological system(SES)-based approaches have been proposed to address environmental problems. Most social-ecological frameworks developed to date, however, lack clear operational linkages between humans and nature to efficiently guide SESs toward resilience. A conceptual framework designed to be operational is therefore necessary, as well as a network of research platforms with which to apply it. We defined explicit coupling processes that can be used as leverages to pilot an SES toward sustainability. We proposed to formalize an SES as a dynamic entity composed of two coupling interfaces, i.e., adaptive management and ecosystem services, both set within a landscape context to provide an actionable framework. These interfaces describe the way... |

| On an increasingly populated planet, with decreasing biodiversity and limited new opportunities to tap unexploited natural resources, there is a clear need to adjust aspects of marine management and governance. Although sectarian management has succeeded in addressing and managing some important threats to marine ecosystems, unintended consequences are often associated with overlooking nonlinear interactions and cumulative impacts that increase the risk of surprises in social-ecological systems. In this paper, we begin to untangle science-governance-society (SGS) interdependencies in marine systems by considering how to recognize the risk of surprise in social and ecological dynamics. Equally important is drawing attention to our state of preparedness,... |

| Adopting new technology always involves advantages and risks; Bt cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a new technology well known in developed countries for its many advantages, such as reduced pesticide application, better insect pest control, and higher lint yield. However, its success in developing countries is still a question mark. Global adoption of Bt cotton has risen dramatically from 0.76 million ha when introduced in 1996 to 7.85 million ha in the 2005 cotton-growing season where 54% of the cotton crops in the USA, 76% in China, and 80% in Australia were grown with single or multiple Bt genes. Bollworms are serious cotton pests causing 30-40% yield reduction in Pakistan and 20-66% potential crop losses in India. The major advances shown in this... |

| Managers of agricultural cooperatives were contacted to determine their knowledge/capabilities and perspectives of the cooperative environment with special emphasis given to the importance of cooperative principles to the operation and success of the business, division of responsibility between management and the board of directors, and business decision making in the areas of financial analysis plus selected scenarios. Managers showed strong adherence to traditional cooperative principles and basic decision areas. Self-assessments were positive and consistent with performance measures. The opportunity exists to improve manager knowledge/capabilities related to cooperative principles, division of responsibility between managers and the board, and financial... |
