Development, Diffusion and Impact of Conservation Farming in Zambia
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Haggblade,   Steven; Tembo,   Gelson.
The study reported in this paper measures differences in profitability between conservation farming (CF) practices and conventional agriculture by comparing the value of differential output with the differential input costs. The main objective is to address and fill several important knowledge gaps by investigating three key features of conservation farming in Zambia: 1) the process by which CF originated and spread; 2) the scale of CF adoption  across household groups and regions; and 3) the impact of CF on crop output, input use, cost of  production and farm income.

ASPECTOS TEÓRICOS E PRÁTICOS ASSOCIADOS À DECISÃO DE USO DE AGROTÓXICOS: UMA ABORDAGEM INTEGRADA ENTRE A AGRICULTURA, MEIO AMBIENTE E SAÚDE PÚBLICA.
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Soares,   Wagner Lopes; Porto,   Marcelo Firpo De Souza.
O objetivo desse artigo é discutir o que leva o agricultor a aplicar ou não os agrotóxicos, bem como ressaltar quais são os elementos que estão por traz dessa decisão. O presente trabalho abordará o problema a partir de uma análise integrada entre agricultura, meio ambiente e saúde pública, estabelecendo elementos que dão legitimidade à agricultura sustentável como geradora de benefícios sociais, ambientais e econômicos vis-à-vis as técnicas da agricultura convencional com uso intensivo de agrotóxicos e geradoras de externalidades negativas. Para tal, lançamos mão de alguns dados e artigos da literatura específica que ilustram os aspectos teóricos aqui levantados. Com intuito de corroborar esses aspectos teóricos, processamos os microdados da Pesquisa de...
