Farming Systems Research has three core characteristics: it builds
on systems thinking, it depends on the close collaboration between
social and biophysical sciences, and it relies on participation to
build co-learning processes. Farming Systems Research posits that
to contribute towards sustainable rural development, both
interdisciplinary collaborations and local actor engagement are
needed. Together, they allow for changes in understanding and
changes in practices. This book gives an overview of the insights
generated in 20 years of Farming Systems Research. It retraces the
emergence and development of Farming Systems Research in Europe,
summarises the state-of-the-art for key areas, and provides an
outlook on new explorations, especially those tackling the dynamic
nature of farming systems and their interaction with the natural
environment and the context of action.
