Family farming is the predominant form of agriculture in the food
production sectors in both developing and developed countries. It
mainly includes all family-based agricultural activities, and it is
linked to several areas of rural and social development. It is
understood as a means of organizing agricultural, forestry,
fisheries, pastoral and aquaculture production which is managed and
operated by a family and increasingly reliant on family labour of
both men and women. In developing countries like India, a number of
factors are key for the successful development of family farming,
such as: agro-ecological conditions and territorial
characteristics; access to markets; policy environment; access to
land and natural resources; access to technology and extension
services; access to finance; demographic, economic and
socio-cultural conditions; availability of specialized education
among a few. The United Nations has designated the year 2014 as the
International Year of Family Farming at the 66th session of the
United Nations General Assembly recognizing the increasing role of
family farming in poverty alleviation and rural development in
particular. The content of the book offers a diverse selection of s
that address issues of importance to those in the agriculture
industry, researchers, faculty, and others.
