Wallace Institute for Alternative Agriculture Papers are invited for a conference dealing with ways that agriculture can offer environmental benefits, rather than simply reducing the damage it imposes on the environment. The goal of the conference is to foster a new kind of strategic thinking about agriculture based on "win-win" approaches that jointly serve both agricultural and environmental interests. Some examples of environmental benefits that appropriately managed agricultural systems can provide include: o Refuges for wildlife species that thrive in suitable agricultural ecosystems and that are being deprived of other habitat.

NEW PARTNERSHIP BRINGS AGRICULTURE, ENVIRONMENT TOGETHER TO PROTECT OCEAN
Officials Unveil Marine Sanctuary Agriculture and Rural Lands Plan
The long-term health of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary received a welcome boost today, thanks to a unique collaboration among farmers, government officials and environmentalists. At a ceremony held at the National Steinbeck Center, officials unveiled the Agriculture and Rural Lands Plan , an initiative to protect sanctuary waters while sustaining the economic viability of the region's agricultural industry. "The Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary is about bringing people together to solve tough issues, and that is what today's announcement represents," said William Douros, sanctuary superintendent with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. "This plan focuses on voluntary conservation practices, strengthens relations with the agriculture community, and is good news for the region's rivers, wetlands, harbors, and coastal waters." The Agriculture and Rural Lands Plan is a unique collaborative effort crafted by the sanctuary's Water Quality Protection Program and the industry-led Farm Bureaus from six counties adjacent to the sanctuary. Strategies focus on improving technical assistance and education, funding and economic incentives for conservation measures, better coordination of the existing regulatory system to reduce barriers to implementing erosion control practices, and improving maintenance practices for rural roadways and public lands. A key element of the plan is an offer by the six-county Central Coast Farm Bureau Coalition to take a leadership role in establishing industry-led networks of landowners to address water quality issues.

Fighting the Population/Agriculture/Environment Nexus in Sub-Saharan Africa
Sub-Saharan Africa's demographic, agriculture and environmental problems are closely linked in a nexus of mutually reinforcing causality chains. Key linkages are found in traditional crop production and livestock husbandry methods, traditional land tenure and land use practices, traditional responsibilities of women in rural production and household maintenance, and traditional methods of utilizing woodland and forest resources. These systems and practices, well suited to people's survival needs on Africa's fragile resource endowment when population densities were low and populations stable or growing only slowly, came under increasing strain with the rapid acceleration of population growth that began when mortality rates declined sharply in the 1950s while birth rates remained high. The pace of evolution of these systems has been inadequate in the face of dramatically intensifying pressure of more people on finite stocks of natural resources.

Total Environment Centre Media Release
Environment groups and cattle farmers united
Date: 01 February 1999
Summary: Total Environment Centre and the Nature Conservation Council of NSW have today called on Craig Knowles, Minister for Urban Affairs and Planning to immediately introduce a planning instrument to stop the uncontrolled expansion and trail of destruction left by the high-impact cotton industry across the countryside, threatening the sustainability of NSW agriculture. The groups also called on major parties to detail how they will protect the environment, sustainable agriculture and rural communities by overhauling pesticide legislation. Total Environment Centre and the Nature Conservation Council of NSW have today called on Craig Knowles, Minister for Urban Affairs and Planning to immediately introduce a planning instrument to stop the uncontrolled expansion and trail of destruction left by the high-impact cotton industry across the countryside, threatening the sustainability of NSW agriculture. The groups also called on major parties to detail how they will protect the environment, sustainable agriculture and rural communities by overhauling pesticide legislation.
"The cotton industry should be treated like all other high-impact polluting industries and be forced to be made accountable for the pollution it creates. Peter Austin, columnist for The Land commented (28.1.99) that 'Too often, the cotton industry seems to be calling the tune, trusting to its financial and political 'clout' to subdue opposition''.

      As for those who would take the whole world to tinker it as they see fit, I observe that they never succeed: for the world is a sacred vessel, not made to be altered by man. The tinker will spoil it; usurpers will lose it.
      Tao Te Ching (Poem 29) Lao Tzo
      approx. 1100 BC. Blakney trans. Written in Lesotho by Allan Searle
      Appeared in Volunteers Illustrated
      [A journal for Lesotho Peace Corps Volunteers Photo by Beau used in above image. Upland soils with thick vegetation fetter and liberate water, so there is not too much in some ( flood ) years nor too little in other ( drought ) years. If this is not common knowledge, we are apt to hear a lot of cloud cursing; flood and drought are two sides of the same coin. So, there is a great need to increase vegetative cover beginning with higher elevations. Yet at the same time both the people population and its intimately linked animal population (dowry, status, and celebration) continue to rise, demanding more from less. To impose radical ideas on the landscape may brush off the familiarity Basotho have with certain work and dietary staples. Soon the herdboys will be pulling all-nighters to allow their cows to graze extra just before plowing (at precisely the time of year when over-grazing is most damaging to a pasture). So there is a binding, not only to what needs to be done and how to do it, but also to when it needs to be done. Ultimately, projects need not accept these boundaries but must try to supply basic food and fit with existing labor patterns.
