Labor Use By Small-Scale Conventional And Sustainable Farmers In Tennessee, Fisseha Tegegne, Surendra P. Singh, Enefiok Ekanem, Safdar Muhammad Dec 2001

Labor Use By Small-Scale Conventional And Sustainable Farmers In Tennessee, Fisseha Tegegne, Surendra P. Singh, Enefiok Ekanem, Safdar Muhammad

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

A comparison of labor use by small-scale conventional and sustainable farmers has received little attention from researchers. However, the issue is significant given the growing emphasis being placed on a sustainable farming system, which is considered to require more labor and managerial input compared to the conventional one. This study analyzes labor use of small-scale farmers in Tennessee by classifying them into conventional and sustainable categories. The data were collected using face-to-face interviews of randomly selected farmers. Analysis shows that farm operators were the primary source of labor for production and farm business management both for sustainable and conventional farmers, …


Foucault On The Farm: Producing Swine And Subjects, Mary E. Curran Dec 2001

Foucault On The Farm: Producing Swine And Subjects, Mary E. Curran

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

In this paper, through a discussion of an ongoing conflict about regulation of industrial farming in Kentucky, I use Foucault's (1980a, 1980b, 1991) work on governmentality and power and knowledge to analyze how the power relations embedded within processes of governmentality and knowledge production act to marginalize certain groups while producing new regimes of truth and altering subjectivities. My approach differs from that of current academic research and American mass media reporting of the environmental and social impacts of industrial animal agriculture. Academic literature has largely focused upon either the structural changes resulting from the industrialization of agriculture or on …


Outdoor Recreation Constraints: An Examination Of Race, Gender, And Rural Dwelling, Cassandra Y. Johnson, J. M. Bowker, H. Ken Cordell Dec 2001

Outdoor Recreation Constraints: An Examination Of Race, Gender, And Rural Dwelling, Cassandra Y. Johnson, J. M. Bowker, H. Ken Cordell

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

We assess whether traditionally marginalized groups in American society (African-Americans, women, rural dwellers) perceive more constraints to outdoor recreation participation than other groups. A series of logistic regressions are applied to a national recreation survey and used to model the probability that individuals perceive certain constraints to participating in outdoor recreation activities. Twelve constraints related to health, facilities, socioeconomic standing, and other personal factors are examined for both participants and nonparticipants of outdoor recreation. We model the probability that individuals report being constrained in participating in their favorite activities as a function of race, gender, and rural residence. In addition, …


Use Old Christmas Trees To Provide Cover For Wildlife, Mitchell Diggs Dec 2001

Use Old Christmas Trees To Provide Cover For Wildlife, Mitchell Diggs

University of Mississippi News

UNIVERSITY, Miss. -- Old Christmas trees -- Martha Stewart may have dozens of creative uses for them, but most folks just chuck the holiday centerpiece on the curb with the other remnants of cheer. Instead, consider using it to help fish and other wildlife, suggests Dr. Stephen Brewer, assistant professor of biology at The University of Mississippi (UM). Using old trees to construct fish shelters in lakes and reservoirs is one option that has gained favor with conservation officials.


Despite High-Tech Entertainment Age, Books Still Enthrall Young Children, Deidra Jackson Dec 2001

Despite High-Tech Entertainment Age, Books Still Enthrall Young Children, Deidra Jackson

University of Mississippi News

UNIVERSITY, Miss. -- When classic stories such as "Charlotte's Web," "Goodnight Moon," and "The Snowy Day" are passed on from one generation to another, they continue to prove at least one concept unrivaled by CD burners, video games, and other high-tech toys: books stand the test of time. Whether bought as presents or borrowed or purchased to fill idle vacation time before and after the holidays, a traditional page-turner can still hold a child's interest and help establish firm reading habits, said Dr. Martha Chambless, coordinator of elementary education in The University of Mississippi (UM) School of Education's Curriculum and …
