5-0 out of 5 stars An oldie but goodie
A homesteading manual from the turn of the century, this book is a wealth of information regarding the tips and tricks of running a productice small scale farm.

5-0 out of 5 stars Five Acres and Independence
Don't knoow much about it, was purchased as a gift.Received it in a timely manner in good condition.

4-0 out of 5 stars Stands the test of time (well, mostly...)
I have the 1973 version of this book (still available through Amazon).The 1973 version is really the original 1935 text (published in 1940) with a forward written in 1973.I suspect the 2007 version is much the same.The chapters are many and include: City vs Country Life, Tried and True Ways to Fail, Who is Likely to Succeed, Figures Don't Lie, The Farm to Choose, Where to Locate, Lay and Lay-out of Land, Windbreaks - Pro and Con, Essential Factors of Production, Renting vs Buying, Capital, Farm Finance, Farm Accounts, Water Supply, Sewage Disposal, Functions of Water, Drainage, and they go on and on for a total of 51 chapters with fairly small print so there's a lot packed into this book.

The Appendices is roughly 40 pages and offers information about things like the number of plants you'll need per acre (or any size portion of land), how to figure what farm equipment really costs to own, and much more.Although the prices quoted to use in the formulas are laughingly low by today's costs - the math and theory behind them is still applicable.

I felt it was worth the price for all that's packed into it that is still applicable today (although I bought mine in good used condition for about half the cover price).

If you want to know more about this book, just read the reviews for the previous version. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Very informative.
This book is easy to read, to understand and it is very informative. I was not interested in a book full of stats from cover to cover, or a book with PHD dissertation styled vocabulary, or a preschooler's primer version either. This is a serious book for those of us who are new to farming. We need this, because even some of the simple know-how is not as obvious as it would be to a born and raised farmer. I think this book is a must read for those who have a passion for gardening and seriously consider farming or owning one in the future. Knowledge is a good investment.

4-0 out of 5 stars Making your small farm profitable
great resource book as we decided what to do with a farm we bought 3 years ago. Although some of the book doesn't apply to our situation, much of the information helped us make sound decisions of which way to go - cattle or agriculture crops. We chose to grow organic blueberries.

5-0 out of 5 stars Practical
I have read about half of this so far and love it. I am reading lots of books on the subject, and this is definitely another good one. I believe I will be able to put many of these ideas into practical use.

5-0 out of 5 stars Very informative book
I got a lot out of this book. The book gave good information on setting realistic goals and what to plan on for your farm.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource
If you are thinking about farming on a large scale or small, this book is a must - have. Ron Macher has written this book clearly and precisly, using his years of experience, as well as others.Most for me is his application of renewing the soil with plants and animals, and running a sustainable farm of any size.There is no pretense that farming is not hard work, but he has broken it down in such a way that you can learn to manage all aspects of farming.I would buy this book for anyone thinking about farming, and it will remain off my bookshelf to be used as a reference over & over. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
Only four crops-maize, potatoes, rice and wheat-provide more than 90 per cent of the world's food. Increasingly, old varieties of even these crops are disappearing as farmers and consumers strive for more uniformity in food products. This narrowing of the diversity of the main components of agricultural systems has a knock-on effect on less obvious elements, such as insects that play a role in pollinating plants or controlling pests and the soil organisms that help plants extract nutrients from the soil. Also, farmers need a broad base of agrobiodiversity to be able to respond and adapt to environmental changes and to improve their production. This is especially important in the face of climate change and changing economic and political pressures.

This book from Bioversity International describes a study conducted in Syria of how communities are developing markets for local products derived from neglected and underutilized plants. Based on concrete case studies, the data and processes documented in the book show the potential of biodiversity to make a significant contribution to livelihood security in communities that inhabit difficult environments with unique resources. The study also highlights the importance of local cultural knowledge and institutions in sustainable development of biodiversity markets.

Product Description
Storage and Commodity Markets is primarily a work of economic theory, concerned with how the capability to store a surplus affects the prices and production of commodities.Its focus on the behavior, over time, of aggregate stockpiles provides insights into such questions as how much a country should store out of its current supply of food considering the uncertainty in future harvests.Related topics covered include whether storage or international trade is a more effective buffer and whether stockpiles are more useful in raw or processed form.Several chapters are devoted to analyzing such government programs as price bands, buffer stocks, and strategic reserves; other chapters deal with the statistical properties imparted by storage. ...
