Consumers are misled towards demand of unsustainable and inadequately priced food products by an insufficient internalization of externalities. Shifting demand towards more sustainable dietary[...]Article
Capitalism in the theorizations of sustainability transformation has been largely taken for granted for its misleadingly assumed stability and homogeneity, thus limiting the scope for defining alternative futures, policy options and strategi[...]Article
Promoting pesticide reduction is a critical component of achieving sustainable agriculture. However, the challenges involved in coordinating diverse stakeholder demands pose difficulties in promoting pesticide reduction behavior. To reveal the e[...]Article
In the last decades, the Rif area in Morocco has been frequently affected by soil erosion due to intense rainfall events. In order to help farmers improve their lives and avoid damages caused by this phenomenon, a management project (the MCA Pro[...]Article

The global warming fight should focus on agriculture, especially on olive crops, due to their potential role in combating it. One of the leading olive oil-producing countries is Turkey; therefore, evaluating and quantifying the environmental imp[...]Article
Small-grain farming systems in Mediterranean climatic regions are characterized by poor quality soils, high climate variability, and resulting heavy agrochemical reliance. The adoption of Conservation Agriculture, based on minimum tillage, perma[...]Article
M. Lambotte ; S. De Cara ; C. Brocas ; V. Bellassen |There is a lack of clear empirical evidence towards the lower carbon footprint of organic food products, in particular in the dairy sector. Until now, small sample sizes, lack of properly defined counterfactual and the omission of land-use relat[...]Article
This study investigates change in the intensification of agricultural activities and its effect on the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the 27 European Union (EU) Member States over a ten-year period from 2009 to 2019. Both multivariate and non[...]Article
