| | Résumé : | * The largest single study in the world in Ethiopia shows composting gives 30 percent more crop yields than chemical fertilizers
* Scientists, too, find organic out yields conventional agriculture by a factor of 1.3, and green manure alone could provide all nitrogen needs
* Local farmers in Sahel defied the dire predictions of scientists and policy-makers by greening the desert and creating a haven of trees
* Organic urban agriculture feeds Cuba without fossil fuels
* Organic agriculture and localised food systems mitigate 30 percent of the world's greenhouse gas emissions and save one-sixth of energy consumption
* Anaerobic digestion of farm and food wastes in zero-emission food and energy farms could boost total energy savings to 49.7 percent and greenhouse gas savings to 54 percent
* Cleaner, safer environment, greater biodiversity, more nutritious healthier foods
* Higher income and independence for farmers, more employment opportunities
* Regenerate local economies, revitalize local, indigenous knowledge, create social wealth. | | Type de document : | Livre | | Permalien de la notice : | https://infodoc.agroparistech.fr/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=119070 |
