Contrasting the prevailing theories of the evolution of
agriculture, the author argues that the practice of smallholding is
more efficient and less environmentally degrading than that of
industrial agriculture which depends heavily on fossil fuel,
chemical fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides. He presents a
convincing case for his argument with examples taken from Africa,
Asia, Europe and the Americas, and demonstrates that there are
fundamental commonalities among smallholder cultures.
"Smallholders, Householders" is a detailed and innovative analysis
of the agricultural efficiency and conservation of resources
practiced around the world by smallholders.
