Crops and livestock that were once relatively small in terms of production have grown dramatically in recent years. For example, poultry and swine, respectively, are our second and third largest agricultural industries and Oklahoma is now one of the top states in their production. F rom the arid High Plains of the panhandle to the forests of southeastern Oklahoma, there aren't many North American crops not grown in our state. Fields of wheat and corn are next-door neighbors to vineyards and organically grown specialty crops. And while many people continue to view Oklahoma as one of the Plains States, we have over 6 million acres of commercial timber production, which contributes over $1.5 billion to our economy each year.

    A detailed account of how sustainable agriculture integrates environmental health, economic profitability, and social and economic equity. From UC Davis.

    Extractions: About UC SAREP Program Areas Grant Information Resources UC Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Program Home Calendar Search Contact Us A griculture has changed dramatically, especially since the end of World War II. Food and fiber productivity soared due to new technologies, mechanization, increased chemical use, specialization and government policies that favored maximizing production. These changes allowed fewer farmers with reduced labor demands to produce the majority of the food and fiber in the U.S. Although these changes have had many positive effects and reduced many risks in farming, there have also been significant costs.Prominent among these are topsoil depletion, groundwater contamination, the decline of family farms, continued neglect of the living and working conditions for farm laborers, increasing costs of production, and the disintegration of economic and social conditions in rural communities. A growing movement has emerged during the past two decades to question the role of the agricultural establishment in promoting practices that contribute to these social problems. Today this movement for sustainable agriculture is garnering increasing support and acceptance within mainstream agriculture. Not only does sustainable agriculture address many environmental and social concerns, but it offers innovative and economically viable opportunities for growers, laborers, consumers, policymakers and many others in the entire food system.

The Driftless Region Food and Farm Project is a coalition of farmers, consumers, institutions, agencies and organizations. Together, they aspire to meet the growing demand for local food by scaling up the production, aggregation, processing, distribution and marketing of food in the Driftless Region of Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois. [...more] From farmers’ markets to supermarkets, there is a spectrum of relationships between consumers and the businesses that grow, process, distribute and market their food. Small-scale, local food production is often contrasted with the anonymity of global, industrial food production, resulting in a black and white portrayal of local and global food systems. In reality, the food system is far more complex than local versus global and artisanal versus industrial. [...more]

A significant trend is agribusiness concentration the emergence of fewer but larger firms in certain markets and the resulting impact on farm and retail food prices, industry structure, and innovation. Food processors transform raw agricultural and marine products into intermediate foodstuffs and edible final products. New procedures and technologies are changing this sector's organization and production costs. These changes affect farm prices, food prices and product qualities.

GSC provides all needed equipment including sleeping bags, mats, and tents. You will stay in a secure area, usually in the compound of the village leader, and a local mama will prepare meals for the group.
