    Farmland numbers decline: Fewer farms exist in the U.S., as a result of consolidation and a movement of land to non-agricultural uses, USDA said Friday. U.S. farm operators are estimated at 2.08 million at the start of this year, a decline of 0.6 percent from a year ago. Some 930.9 million acres were in farmland, down 1.5 million from one year earlier. The decline in farm numbers pushed the average farm size up to 449 acres, an increase of three acres from the previous year. Farms with sales less than $100,000 - which account for about 83% of all U.S. farms - dropped 1.2% due to consolidation and rising incomes that moved some farmers and ranchers into the next sales bracket without adding land or boosting their businesses. Operations with sales of $100,000 or more rose 2.2%

AgriCultures Network
Success stories from small-scale farmers are often hard to find. They do exist, and there is much to be learnt from them. They can help improve productivity, generate income, and empower farmers.
The AgriCultures Network produces magazines and other media to build knowledge and exchange information, and stimulates debate and concerted action among key stakeholders. In this way we promote sustainable family farming, stressing its capacity to address structural global problems such as hunger, poverty, environmental degradation and climate change.
Call for contributions: The role of a new generation of farmers

Debate: What does good water governance mean?

Meet AgriCultures Network at the Addis Ababa ShareFair from 18-21 October, 2010

Sustainet – Ein Kooperationsvorhaben zur Welthungerbekämpfung durch nachhaltige Landwirtschaft
Die Zahl der hungernden Menschen wird derzeit auf 850 Millionen geschätzt. Weltweit gesammelte Erfahrungen zeigen, dass die nachhaltige Landwirtschaft einen signifikanten Beitrag zur Hungerbekämpfung in der Welt leisten kann. Besonders für Kleinbauern in den Ländern des Südens stellt sie eine realistische Möglichkeit zur Ertragssteigerung dar. Doch trotz ihres hohen Potenzials konnten sich oft auch erfolgreiche Modelle der nachhaltigen Landwirtschaft bisher nicht großflächig verbreiten. Der Rat für Nachhaltige Entwicklung hat das Problem aufgegriffen und im Rahmen des Aktionsprogramms der Bundesregierung das Kooperationsvorhaben Sustainet - Sustainable Agriculture Information Network initiiert. Finanziert vom Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung (BMZ) und unterstützt vom Bundesministerium für Ernährung, Landwirtschaft und Verbraucherschutz (BMELV)

    The Beginning Farmer
    The Journey of a Beginning Farmer :: As a child I spent most of my life in town living with my mom, but whenever I visited my Dad and his side of the family it was on the farm. From my earliest memories I have always wanted to be a farmer (except when I wanted to be a cowboy). Now, I am trying to fulfill that dream. This will be a journal of that journey :: my research, my joys, my frustrations, and all of the things that go along with the beginning farmer.

    NHF Podcast ... "Death of a Farm"
    Thank you to all of you have taken time to comment and e-mail over the past couple weeks. I am taking time to filter everything through my mind, but want to say that I'm thankful for the encouragement and ideas. Hopefully I'll find the time to respond and share some of the things that are processing through my head soon! In the meantime though here is something interesting ...
    Many of you may already know that Nature's Harmony Farm has stopped doing their blog, but have begun doing podcasts. I have been listening to them lately when there is time while I'm driving around and they have been pretty interesting. But, for me their latest podcast was very interesting ... especially in light of my latest post and thoughts about the farm. You can find it on iTunes or download it from

    Digital Green is hiring Please click here ... GREEN Foundation Overview
    The DG system provides structure to a traditional, informally-trained vocation. The system improves the efficiency of extension programs by delivering targeted content to a wider audience and enabling farmers to better manage their farming operations with reduced field support.
    The features of the Digital Green system include: Digital Green borrows concepts and experiences from the Digital StudyHall (DSH) system. Launched in September 2006 by Microsoft Research India's Technology for Emerging Markets team, a live deployment of a prototype is currently in development with the GREEN Foundation in villages near the Karanataka and Tamil Nadu-state borders in India.
    We are actively compiling a repository of videos that includes testimonials of progressive farmers, field demonstrations led by agriscientists, interactions amongst farmers, and market-based opportunities. The library currently contains over 150 locally-produced videos in the Kannada language. These recordings are minimally-edited prior to screenings, which are shown to individuals on laptops, small groups using shared TV and DVD players, and communities through the village cable network. Unlike attempts to use traditional mass media to broadcast agricultural information, DG is local and relevant. Farmers are motivated to adopt a new practice when they see a fellow villager, living in similar circumstances, experience its benefits.
