Analysis Of Integrated Farming Systems In Eastern Nebraska, Lori A. Hoagland
Analysis Of Integrated Farming Systems In Eastern Nebraska, Lori A. Hoagland
School of Natural Resources: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
Agroecosystems in the U.S. are beset with social, ecological and environmental problems as large industrial farming methods are edging out small family-sized farms and replacing ecological services provided by biodiversity with synthetic inputs and practices. While many of the benefits of smaller diversified or integrated farming systems are well known, farm producers need a concrete model that shows how integration is possible and with what crops. The objective of this study was to investigate some of these supplemental farm activities, and identify and evaluate whether they were compatible given the time and resource constraints of a typical eastern Nebraska farm. …
