About this product

Product Information

Traditional Arid Lands Agriculture is the first of its kind. Each chapter considers four questions: what we don't know about specific aspects of traditional agriculture, why we need to know more, how we can know more, and what research questions can be pursued to know more. What is known is presented to provide context for what is unknown. Traditional agriculture, nonindustrial plant cultivation for human use, is practiced worldwide by millions of smallholder farmers in arid lands. Advancing an understanding of traditional agriculture can improve its practice and contribute to understanding the past. Traditional agriculture has been practiced in the U.S. Southwest and northwest Mexico for at least four thousand years and intensely studied for at least one hundred years. What is not known or well-understood about traditional arid lands agriculture in this region has broad application for research, policy, and agricultural practices in arid lands worldwide. The authors represent the disciplines of archaeology, anthropology, agronomy, art, botany, geomorphology, paleoclimatology, and pedology. This multidisciplinary book will engage students, practitioners, scholars, and any interested in understanding and advancing traditional agriculture.

"The unique format of the volume requires that the authors of each chapter use their expertise to become visionaries not just about their work as it stands today but where it is going (or needs to go) in the future."--J. Andrew Darling, co-editor of Trails, Rock Features, and Homesteading in the Gila Bend Area: A Report on the State Route 85, Gila Bend to Buckeye, "The lessons from arid lands agriculture in the past, highlighting what we know and don't know, are strikingly relevant in the context of current challenges facing millions of smallholder farmers."--Daniel Gustafson, Deputy Director-General, Operations, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, "Offers a fresh perspective by synthesizing past research and also presenting new methods and directions for future arid lands agricultural research."-- Ethnobiology Letters "This book is a welcome breath of fresh air, in that its contributors--again, all seasoned veterans--challenged tradition! The authors expose all the warts and blemishes in their respective areas of specialization, and they do so enthusiastically for the benefit of future scholars and future research."-- Journal of Anthological Research, "Offers a fresh perspective by synthesizing past research and also presenting new methods and directions for future arid lands agricultural research."-- Ethnobiology Letters "This book is a welcome breath of fresh air, in that its contributors - again, all seasoned veterans - challenged tradition! The authors expose all the warts and blemishes in their respective areas of specialization, and they do so enthusiastically for the benefit of future scholars and future research."-- Journal of Anthological Research  , "Offers a fresh perspective by synthesizing past research and also presenting new methods and directions for future arid lands agricultural research."-- Ethnobiology Letters  , "This volume presents a thorough assessment of our current understanding but also sets a research agenda for years to come. No doubt countless research projects, theses, and dissertations will be inspired by this volume."--Melissa Kruse Peeples, author of The Agricultural Landscape of Perry Mesa: Modeling Residential Site Location in Relation to Arable Land

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
