This book was released on 2006 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Technology and scientific advances in American agriculture have transformed the industry beyond diversified farms that once provided the food and fiber needs of a single family. Ohio agriculture plays an important role in the economy of the state and lifestyle of rural residents. The expansion of farm size throughout the state has accompanied the development of Ohio's agricultural industry in recent years. The Ohio dairy industry has not been immune to the changes that have occurred in agriculture. The development of large-scale dairy farms in Ohio has been met with varying degrees of acceptability. Some communities have actively opposed the establishment of such operations, while other communities have expressed more support for large-scale dairy operations. The primary problem addressed in this study involved the identification of factors that contributed to the support or opposition of large-scale dairy farms established in two rural Ohio communities. This research involved an embedded case study with two units of analysis. Qualitative and quantitative measures were utilized in the study. Stakeholder perceptions of large-scale dairies and other livestock farms on the four dimensions of the Ecological Paradigm were obtained through a researcher-developed mailed questionnaire. Contextual information for each county was gathered and analyzed. County demographic data was analyzed from the US Census Bureau. Agricultural production data from the US Agricultural Census was analyzed for the two counties (i.e. cases) identified for the study. Permitting information for each case was also analyzed. It was concluded from the results of this study that the two counties were similar in terms of most demographics. Both counties were determined to be agriculturally-based counties with higher proportion of employment in agriculture and more agricultural production, and agricultural sales than the average county in the State of Ohio. Differences in the agricultural 'culture' of the two counties may have influenced support for or opposition to the large-scale dairy farm in each respective county. Agriculture in County X focused more heavily on swine and dairy production, whereas County Y focused more on crop and beef production. Stakeholder perceptions were consistent between counties and stakeholder groups. Overall, stakeholders agreed that large-scale dairies were economically viable and efficient in production, however they disagreed that large-scale dairies were environmentally compatible and socially responsible. Stakeholders agreed that other local livestock farms were environmentally compatible, efficient in production and socially responsible but disagreed that other livestock farms were economically viable. Communities should recognize and acknowledge the economic viability and production efficiency of large-scale dairies with assurances that environmental and social concerns are managed. Large-scale dairy owners may be able to enhance acceptance (or at least reduce opposition) to the establishment of large-scale dairy farms by incorporating the following steps: (a) assess the agricultural context of the community, (b) use technology, systems, and management practices to ensure safety of the environment, (c) communicate the technology, systems. and management utilized to stakeholders, and (d) meet the expectations of involvement and integration into the social fabric of the community. Stakeholders can benefit from relationships with large- scale dairies as well as providing advice and local information during the establishment process. Just as large-scale dairy owners must address the environmental and social impacts of agriculture, stakeholders should recognize the production efficiency and economic impact of large-scale dairy on the local community. Environmental and social concerns should be recognized by Extension Educators, who provide a communication link between the agricultural sector (large-scale dairy owners) and the non-agriculture public.

Download or read book Rural and urban linkages: Operation floods role in Indias dairy development written by Kenda Cunningham and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2009 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1970 and 2009, India has overcome many infrastructural, market, and institutional challenges to transition from a dairy importing nation to the top producer in the world of both buffalo and goat milk, as well as the sixth largest producer of cow milk. In India, at least 100 million households are involved in farming and 70 million have dairy cattle. In India, dairy production is important for employment, income levels, and the nutritional quality of diets. Milk production in India is dominated by smallholder farmers including landless agricultural workers. For example, 80 percent of milk comes from farms with only two to five cows. A well-known smallholder dairy production initiative, Operation Flood, laid the foundation for a dairy cooperative movement that presently ensures returns on dairy investments to 13 million members. Operation Flood also advanced infrastructural improvements to enable the procurement, processing, marketing, and production of milk and to link India's major metropolitan cities with dairy cooperatives nationwide. This intervention transformed the policy environment, brought significant technological advancements into the rural milk sector, established many village cooperatives, and oriented the dairy industry toward markets.

Book Synopsis Local Food Systems; Concepts, Impacts, and Issues by : Steve Martinez
Download or read book Local Food Systems; Concepts, Impacts, and Issues written by Steve Martinez and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive overview of local food systems explores alternative definitions of local food, estimates market size and reach, describes the characteristics of local consumers and producers, and examines early indications of the economic and health impacts of local food systems. Defining ¿local¿ based on marketing arrangements, such as farmers selling directly to consumers at regional farmers¿ markets or to schools, is well recognized. Statistics suggest that local food markets account for a small, but growing, share of U.S. agricultural production. For smaller farms, direct marketing to consumers accounts for a higher percentage of their sales than for larger farms. Charts and tables.
