Book excerpt: UK farmers currently receive nearly [pound]3 billion a year in subsidies under the Common Agricultural Policy. However, CAP reforms agreed in June 2003 will mean a step-change in the way agricultural subsidies will be paid in the future, based on the concept of 'decoupling' which will break the link between production and subsidy, and will give farmers the opportunity to focus on consumer market demand. This report by the National Audit Office examines a range of issues involved in farm business development support in England and makes recommendations for improvements to the operation of existing schemes which run to 2006 and the next phase of schemes to run from 2007 to 2013. Issues discussed include: DEFRA's strategy for sustainable farming covering the food chain as a whole; development scheme take-up levels, budget spend, application and assessment procedures, impact and evaluation; business support needs including advice and training, and tailoring schemes to meet local needs; comparisons with rural development schemes in Wales and Northern Ireland, in a number of other countries in Europe, as well as in the United States, Canada and New Zealand

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A modern classic of the new agrarianism "Chris Smaje...shows that the choice is clear. Either we have a small farm future, or we face collapse and extinction."—Vandana Shiva "Every young person should read this book."—Richard Heinberg In a groundbreaking debut, farmer and social scientist Chris Smaje argues that organizing society around small-scale farming offers the soundest, sanest and most reasonable response to climate change and other crises of civilisation—and will yield humanity’s best chance at survival. Drawing on a vast range of sources from across a multitude of disciplines, A Small Farm Future analyses the complex forces that make societal change inevitable; explains how low-carbon, locally self-reliant agrarian communities can empower us to successfully confront these changes head on; and explores the pathways for delivering this vision politically. Challenging both conventional wisdom and utopian blueprints, A Small Farm Future offers rigorous original analysis of wicked problems and hidden opportunities in a way that illuminates the path toward functional local economies, effective self-provisioning, agricultural diversity and a shared earth. Perfect for readers of both Wendell Berry and Thomas Piketty, A Small Farm Future is a refreshing, new outlook on a way forward for society—and a vital resource for activists, students, policy makers, and anyone looking to enact change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day I watch my farm burn. Day after day, the sky is a relentless, empty blue. As our land dries up, all my hopes have turned to vapour, lost in that wide, blue yonder. And so begins Doug Avery’s story of emotional resilience in the face of what at times seemed a hopeless situation. The South Island farmer suffered terribly during eight years of drought. His farm was depleted and so was he, to the point of severe depression. The Resilient Farmer is Doug’s powerful example of how to get life back on track. With candour and wisdom, he tells his story of turning desperation into determination, embracing risk, navigating change and, on top of everything, enduring monumental earthquakes. An inspiring tale of how one man overcame heartbreaking adversity to live a fruitful life and help others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has happened since agricultural economists and rural sociologists met at the University of Chicago in 1946 to discuss family farming. The problems and issues related to the structure of agriculture have been intensified by current economic considerations, which promote the growth of larger-scale commercial farming operations and edge out many smaller farms owned, operated, and worked by families. In this book, contributors from eleven nations in Europe and North America provide a comparison of farm structure under different economic and political systems, including Poland as an example of a non-market economy. In addition to providing information on how local, state, and international policies have affected the agricultural enterprise, they look at the role of farmers' organizations in policy formulation and take note of changes in farm patterns and policies that have had an impact on farm production, off-farm work, and the welfare of farm families and rural communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines farm machinery in the context of its history, corporations, outside market forces, regulations, and challenges and opportunities. The farm machinery industry is a complex sector of the global manufacturing economy that encompasses many companies, including those who that produce tractors, combines, planting equipment, tillage equipment, and irrigation systems. While the global industry is dominated by three full-line manufacturers (Deere and Company, Case New Holland, and the Allis-Gleaner Corporation), there are thousands of other companies, including many short-line manufacturers, that also dictate the nature of the industry. In recent years, equipment built by competitors from Asia have become more common in the farmstead landscape, capturing some of the market share U.S. manufacturers once dominated. This book examines farm machinery in the context of its history, corporations, outside market forces, regulations, and challenges and opportunities. The farm machinery industry, while contributing a small percentage to gross world product, is vitally important to another key sector of the economy—agriculture. In advanced economies, where the percentage of the labor force engaged in agriculture has been on the decline since World War II, high horsepower tractors and efficient harvesting systems are necessary to cultivate more acres with fewer workers to feed an ever-growing world population. Threats to profits in agriculture, such as natural disasters, climate change, and trade wars, increasingly challenge the profits and the viability of the farm machinery industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1983. How had the situation developed in which agriculture had become such a creature of state protection, where public money supported prosperous landowners while poor farmers received practically nothing? Where the value of agricultural support exceeded net farm income, and vastly exceeded the level of support available to British Steel or British Rail? In answering these questions John Bowers and Paul Cheshire examined the real value of agricultural support in successive policy phases since the Second World War, and analysed the effects this support had on income distribution. Their thesis was that agricultural change, including the transfer of land from traditional farmers to institutions and corporations, was not the product of impersonal progress, but the direct result of agricultural support policies, resting on specious economic arguments. The authors’ analysis of this subject has inescapable relevance for the policymaker, for the taxpayer and consumer of foodstuffs, for the urban user of the British countryside and indeed for farmers and the farming lobby. Agriculture, the Countryside and Land Use will be an important book for all these groups and also for students of agriculture, geography and economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There were about 12.7 million visits to accident and emergency (AandE) services in the last year, and in around a fifth of these, patients were admitted to hospital. AandE departments are only one in a variety of NHS emergency care providers, which include ambulance services, GPs, primary care trusts, out-of-hours services; NHS Direct; and open access minor injury centres. This NAO report examines the extent of progress made towards achieving the key target for maximum total time spent waiting for AandE services, as well as with the wider modernisation of emergency care. The report's conclusions include that, given the high level of demand, there has been a significant and sustained progress towards reducing waiting times in AandE departments and improving the patient's experience, largely due to improved working practices and increased local investment. However, there is further room for improvement in the case of patients with more complex needs, such as older people and those with mental health needs; and regional variations still exist with the performance of the worst performing trusts still some way behind. Further major improvements will depend on tackling the remaining bottlenecks and barriers to modernisation within wider emergency care services. The establishment of local emergency care networks is highlighted as a promising development, as a means to secure greater emergency care service integration and joint-working.
