Human dimensions of agroecological development.

7

TL;DRAbstract

Raising agricultural output sustainably and, in the process, improving people’s livelihoods will depend on the establishment of approaches and capabilities that encourage personal and social learning. Technological change is always a complex process with both biophysical and socioeconomic aspects, and so it is not a matter of introducing new physical things that exist independently of human interaction. Rather, it results from changes in the thinking and activities of individuals, households and communities as well as in market and organizational relationships. In such transitions, learning applies to new systems of behaviour and valuation, not just techniques or methods.
