Examining the concepts, conventions, and components that underlie the ecology of human-managed landscapes, this is the first book to address landscape agroecology. It will show you how to address and overcome drought, flooding, poor soil, damaging winds, plant diseases, plant-eating insects, and more, while respecting the importance of sustainability and environmental friendliness. Bringing together ideas from a number of sources within the fields of agroecology and landscape ecology, Landscape Agroecology provides a comprehensive exploration of what will soon become a cutting-edge topic. Photographs, tables, figures, and illustrations help make important points easy to access and understand. To view an excerpt online, find the book in our QuickSearch catalog at www.HaworthPress.com.
