This is a traditional, more permanent type of farming that relies on ecosystem services to maintain the integrity of the landscape while still producing sufficient yields. In addition, conventional farming uses pesticides and fertilizers to maximize the yield of a particular crop or set of crops, which are typically genetically modified. This book covers several issues related to the multi-functionality and impacts of organic and conventional farming systems. Chapters cover topics related to organic farming and the economy, farm management, and innovative methods and approaches.Organic farmingSustainable agricultureAgricultureEconomic aspectsOrganic farming.Sustainable agriculture.AgricultureEconomic aspects.631.5/84Moudrý JanNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910688588003321Multifunctionality and Impacts of Organic and Conventional Agriculture2185162UNINA
