An autobiographical, historical account of the author's
agricultural and rural development experiences. Includes analyses
of historical and socio-political contexts of different countries
and institutions. The text is in a relaxed, not strictly academic,
style which facilitates easy reading. Tales from an Itinerant
Agronomist covers a lifelong dedication to systems thinking and
learning in agriculture and rural development. It follows the
author's own experiences, based at Universities and within
International Aid programmes, developing farm and rural livelihood
systems for small scale farming families. Covering extended time
spent at educational and research institutions over the last 60
years; including Trinidad, Tanzania, Botswana, Sudan, Syria, Nepal
and Namibia, and short periods in many other countries. The book
looks at cross cutting themes including; the role of animal power
in small farm systems, the performance of some agricultural and
rural development educational institutions: Leeds University, UWI
(Trinidad), University of East Anglia (Norwich,UK), WAU
(Netherlands), SLU (Sweden) and a selected analysis of some trends
and themes in agricultural research. Enriched by the inputs and
experiences from many different farmers, colleagues and
partnerships, Tales From an Itinerant Agronomist is suitable for
readers with an interest in agriculture, farming, rural
development, the environment and sustainability.
