I. Introduction
Food production, environmental protection, and
income generation for poor farmers is one of
our great dilemmas;
International Assessment of Agricultural
Knowledge, Science, and Technology for
Development (IAASTD) – “Food and nutrition
security, sustainable agriculture, and poverty
reduction cannot be achieved by a “business
as usual” approach;

I. Introduction
IAASTD – “The chains of food production and
consumption have to ensure environmental
protection. This entails the need to ensure that
the process does not result in land
abandonment, deforestation or the
displacement of poor smallholders farmers into
marginal land.
