Abstract:

Social protection measures are poverty reduction interventions implemented to assist in reducing poverty shocks of communities. This study considered the Farm Input Subsidy Programme (FISP) that has been implemented in Malawi with the aim of reducing poverty amongst subsistence farmers by providing them with subsidized farm inputs. The study was conducted in the rural area of Lilongwe District, under Traditional Authority Kabudula. The study mainly focussed on the outcomes of implementing the FISP and it entails whether or not the poverty reduction intervention is really achieving its goals. T

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis explores the importance of an appropriate understanding of ethics in sustainability transitions. Through a conceptual analysis, it finds that the dominant understanding of modernist ethics is unsuitable to the contexts of contingency in sustainability transitions, and that the participatory understanding of ethics as a complex system presents a far more adequate approach to the ethical complexity of socioecological systems. In particular, the strategy of 'practising provisionality' is suggested, which understands t

Abstract:

Farmers in Australia and elsewhere face the challenge of remaining profitable whilst dealing with adverse structural arrangements and public expectations to better manage environmental degradation. This thesis draws on arguments that dominant paradigms in agricultural science and environmental management have often been ineffective in addressing these apparently competing demands and appear poorly suited to ‘messy’ situations characterized by uncertainty and complexity, and in which diverse stakeholders are motivated by varying goals and values. Engaging with such situations requires a philoso

This work examines the use of nonhuman animals in the farming industry and seeks to understand why this practice takes place and what supports its continuation. The research is approached from a critical realist perspective and after a description of past and current practices in the industry, it uses abduction and retroduction to determine the essential conditions for the continuation of the phenomenon of nonhuman animal farming. One essential condition is found to be the existence of negative discourses relating to nonhuman animals and this aspect is examined in more detail by analyzing a co

Abstract:

We live in the era in which the internet is now available on the majority of mobile phones at a very cheaper rate. This advancement in technology has created a boom in the use of mobile phone social networking as a primary communication tool - not only for individuals but also commonly used by professionals in most fields. The trends and growing usage of social networking via mobile phone indicate a potentially effective new platform for increasing production especially in agricultural sectors. In this age of information technology, farming communities can be empowered with the latest informat

Abstract:

This thesis examines the possibilities of social-context issues in interpretation. A group interpretation script relating the current difficult conditions of rural Iowa was compiled. Three experts in the field of interpretation were asked to evaluate the potential of this social-context script. It was discovered that a compiled interpretation script of Iowa literature can successfully depict the social concerns facing the family farms of Iowa.

Abstract:

Depuis les années 1990, I 'agriculture péruvienne est marquée par une politique de libéralisation des marchés économique et foncier, dont I'un des principaux effets est l’implantation d'entreprises agro-industrielles sur le territoire péruvien. Sur la côte désertique, cette ouverture se traduit par l'extension de périmètres irrigués et par une transformation profonde de l'espace rural. Dans quelles conditions les entreprises se sont-elles implantées et quelles types de relations instaurent-elles aujourd'hui avec I'ensemble des acteurs du milieu rural?

Abstract:

This study examines factors influencing adoption and continuance of beef cattle production by Solomon Islanders, focussing on the Group Cattle Ranches, from an institutional perspective. Solomon Islanders have been participating in the beef cattle industry through various government initiatives, supported by external development assistance, since the late 1960s. Until 1984, the focus was on smallholder beef cattle production systems in a mini-European cattle ranch model. Concurrent with this type of smallholder development, other systems of beef production were evolving. In 1984, there was

Abstract:

Anthropological research conducted in the Indira Gandhi Nahar Project area of the western Indian state of Rajasthan during 1984-1985 assessed the impact of agricultural land settlement planning on village community formation. The large-scale project, begun in 1957, has brought irrigation water to the extremely arid Thar desert and has brought irrigation water to the extremely arid Thar desert and has dramatically altered the social and physical landscape. Significant efforts have been made by the Government of Rajasthan to select settlers from the poor and landless population, as part of a soc

Abstract:

Cette thèse étudie les mangeurs bio intermittents, partiels et irréguliers dans leur choix bio. Leur figure offre un accès à la variabilité des pratiques alimentaires contemporaines, dans un contexte d'incertitudes multiples : sanitaires, diétiétiques, liées à la diversification de l'offre. En évitant de considérer "a priori" le mangeur comme inquiet, voire angoissé, on repère plutôt quand il devient inquiet, et les processus de problématisation et dé-problématisation des actes alimentaires, dans une perspective pragmatique, complémentaire d'une analyse des trajectoires alimentaires et des jus

Abstract:

Les agriculteurs contemporains utilisent des machines et des matériels « ultra-modernes ». Mais, dans leurs champs qui contribuent à la position de la France, de pays 2ème exportateur de céréales au monde, ils utilisent, aussi, encore, des épouvantails traditionnels. Il est ici question de l'étude de ce qui a semblé, là, un ensemble de décalages, en termes d'apparence et de symbolismes. La recherche, en prenant de la distance avec les explications habituelles du « social agricole », et en s'appuyant sur un ensemble de travaux sociologiques et anthropologiques préalables, a porté sur les pratiq
