  • - En fortælling fra de engelske bjerge
    af James Rebanks
    198,94 kr.

    Nogle mennesker har frihed til at vælge deres egen vej i livet. Det gjaldt ikke for James Rebanks. Han er fåreopdrætter på en gård i Lake District i England, der har været i familiens eje i mere end seks århundreder. James Rebanks bog, The Shepherd’s Life: A Tale of the Lake District, er allerede en stor succes hos både anmeldere og læsere. Hans skildringer af livet som fårebonde er både engagerende, rørende og ærlige. I en stemningsmættet tekst guider Rebanks os gennem et får-år. Bogen er en unik fortælling om livet på landet – et liv, som er fjernt for de fleste af os. Det er en historie om Rebanks arbejdsliv og menneskene omkring ham, hans barndom, hans forældre og bedsteforældre. Det er historien om at være vedholdende på trods af et vanskeligt erhverv, og den er fortalt med stor kærlighed til naturen. For Rebanks og hans familie danner vejret og årstiderne de altafgørende rammer om livet. Om sommeren er fårene på bjerget og høet i laden, om efteråret går man på markedet og bringer nye dyr til besætningen, om vinteren skal dyrene holdes i live, og med foråret kommer nye lam.

    Flæskfødevarer skal ikke længere produceres for enhver pris. Produktionen skal bidrage til at løse klimakrisen, ikke forværre den, vende naturens nedtur til optur og forsyne os med fødevarer uden at frembringe livstruende virus. Sundhed, klima og biodiversitet står øverst på dagsordenen for fremtidens agroindustri.Den helt store disruption af den traditionelle agroindustri kommer i løbet af det næste tiår. Vi står over for den dybeste, hurtigste og mest konsekvensskabende forandring af fødevare- og landbrugsproduktionen, siden de første planter og dyr blev domesticeret for 10.000 år siden.Til trods for at vi kan købe stort set alle fødevarer til lavere priser fra udlandet, fortsætter vi med at højglanspolere myten om Danmark som et landbrugsland. Erhvervet selv går til yderligheder, som når Tulip i Randers sender sine svin til Tyskland for at få dem opskåret af østarbejdere på sulteløn, for derefter at reimportere de samme svin, nu forklædt som Tulip Danish Bacon.Vi holder stadig fast ved masseproduktionen af billigt flæsk og mælk i stedet for at bevæge os opad i værdikæden, som et højtudviklet land burde være i stand til. Ikke mindst økonomien taler for at ophøre med en 120 årgammel tradition for at eksportere bacon og smør til lave udsalgspriser.At det blev netop coronavirus, der lagde en hel verden ned, betragter virologerne som en tilfældighed. Den næste pandemi er allerede under opsejling, og det bliver en influenza A-virus. Med al sandsynlighed vil den spredes fra svinefabrikkerne, og ingen kan forudsige, hvor dødelig den kan blive. Sidst den ramte verden, kostede den 500.000 mennesker livet. Prisen for billigt flæsk kan blive skæbnesvanger høj, hvis vi tøver for længe. Velkommen til fremtidens bedste landmænd.

  • - Samtaler om genopbygningen af jorden i Danmark
    af Sofie Isager Ahl & Sille Skovgaard
    205,95 kr.

    Jorden er grundlaget for vores fødevareproduktion og fødevaresikkerhed. Den er hjem for mere end en fjerdedel af klodens biodiversitet og fungerer som planetens største vandfilter. FN har anslået, at hvis udpiningen af jorden fortsætter, vil mere end 90 % af klodens jorder være svært udpinte i 2050. Regenerativt landbrug er blevet beskrevet som en jordbrugsrevolution, der har potentialet til at vende denne udvikling ved at genopbygge jordfrugtbarheden og øge kulstofbindingen i jorden. Her præsenteres for første gang en række centrale skikkelser i den regenerative jordbrugsbevægelse i Danmark i en samtalebog, der giver et indblik i jordbrugernes arbejde og formidler et grundlæggende skifte i vores forståelse af, hvad jord overhovedet er.Sofie Isager Ahl (f. 1988) er forfatter og har skrevet ph.d. i antropologi om regenerativt landbrug. Hun har tidligere udgivet de skønlitterære bøger Naboplanter (2018) og Demeters latter (2022). I 2023 udkom den etnografiske monografi Regeneration, der tegner et portræt af en ny bevægelse af regenerative jordbrugere i Skandinavien.Sille Skovgaard (f. 1989) er uddannet økologisk jordbruger og antropolog med speciale i regenerativt landbrug. Hun har lavet filmen Jeg tror, vi starter som lys (med Emma Harris, 2024) om regenerative jordbrugeres eksperimenter med jordfrugtbarhed og sidder i bestyrelsen for foreningen Andelsgaarde.

  • - En rejse rundt i dansk landbrug
    af Rasmus Hage Dalland
    122,95 - 235,95 kr.

    Klimakrisen banker på døren, og afstanden mellem land og by vokser. Debatten om landbrugets fremtid er intens, og meningerne er mange og delte. Men ved vi egentlig, hvad vi taler om?Med udgangspunkt i den sidste bonde fra sin egen slægt rejser Rasmus Hage Dalland rundt til forskellige typer landbrug og tegner et billede af, hvordan landmændene selv opfatter de udfordringer og løsninger, forvaltningen af jorden byder dem.Dyrkningen af jorden er fjernere for flere danskere end nogensinde før, men landbruget har stadig dybe rødder i vores spisevaner, landskaber og slægtshistorier, og bevægelser på landet har formet vores politiske system, identitet og naturforståelse. Så hvordan vil de kommende bevægelser i landbruget forandre os?Jordbundet er en rejsefortælling, der undersøger, hvor landbruget står lige nu – på tærsklen til store forandringer.

  • - Brødet og øllets historie
    af Åsmund Bjørnstad
    327,95 kr.

    Åsmund Bjørnstad er professor emeritus i planteforædling i Norge. I Kornbogen – brødets og øllets historie bygger han på det seneste tiårs indsigter indenfor genomforskning, arkæologi, kulturhistorie og bæredygtighedsforskning.Vi tæmmede kornet, og det os! Åsmund Bjørnstad formidler med kulturhistorisk spændvidde kornenes – det vil sige majsens, risens, hvedens, sorghums, hirsens, havrens og rugens – historie, fra vi begyndte at tæmme de vilde frø - og de tæmmede os. For ti, tolv, fjorten tusind år siden. Gennem denne kultivering opstod skriftsprog, tidsregning, religioner og klassesamfund – og den mangfoldighed af mutationer, som vi dagligt, uafvidende sætter på tallerkenerne. Eller svinger kruset med øl! Korn nok? Det var spørgsmålet for stenalderkvinden, som tæmmede kornet og frem til spørgsmålet ligesom gik i glemmebogen, og så lød det: Kød nok? Men nu er kornet igen kommet på den internationale dagsorden: Korn nok? At hver andet korn i dag går til dyrefoder eller til bioenergi, beskriver den nuværende udvikling. Kan den mon fortsætte – i et ændret klima, i en ny verdensorden? Bogens billedside er i absolut særklasse. Omkring 300 illustrationer rummer bogen.

    "The Organic Grain Grower is the best resource we've seen for small-scale grain growers everywhere. . . . [Lazor's] passion comes alive in this fine guidebook's depth of detail."--Mother Earth News The ultimate guide to growing organic grains on a small and ecological scale The Organic Grain Grower is invaluable for both home-scale and commercial producers interested in expanding their resiliency and crop diversity through growing their own grains. Longtime farmer and organic pioneer Jack Lazor covers how to grow and store wheat, barley, oats, corn, dry beans, soybeans, pulse crops, oilseeds, grasses, nutrient-dense forages, and lesser-known cereals. In addition to detailed cultivation and processing information, Lazor argues the importance of integrating grains on the organic farm (not to mention for the local-food system) for reasons of biodiversity and whole farm management. Including extensive information on: The history of grain growing and consumption in North America The twenty-first century and the birth of the local-food movement Considering your farm's scale and climate Understanding soil fertility and structure Planting your crop (including spring vs. fall cereals and preparing your soil) The growing and ripening process (reproductive, milk, hard-and-soft dough stages) The grain harvest Preparing grain for sale, storage, or end use (drying, cleaning seed, grain handling) Seed breeding and saving Machinery, infrastructure, and processing (both home-scale tools and larger farm equipment) Grinding grains for livestock rations (including how to put together a ration based on protein content) and sample rations for dairy cows, pigs, and chickens Processing grains for human consumption Additional resources and information for new grain farmers, and more... Beginners will learn how to grow enough wheat for a year's supply of bread flour for their homestead, and farmers will learn how to become part of a grain co-op, working alongside artisan bakers and mills. Never before has there been a guide to growing organic grains applicable both for the home-scale and professional farming scale. This will be a classic for decades to come and a crucial addition to any farmer's, homesteader's, gardener's, agronomist's, or seed-saver's library.

    "The Ecological Farm is the go-to guide for ecological growing, with a unique focus on reduced tillage, minimizing farm and garden inputs, and pest control. Reflecting the wisdom that farmer, consultant, and educator Helen Atthowe and her late husband, Carl Rosato, gained during decades of farming experience, this book guides readers on how to reduce or eliminate the use of outside inputs of fertilizer or pesticides, even those that are commonly used on certified organic orchards and market gardens. In clear language and with color photographs, charts, and graphs throughout, the book emphasizes the importance of managing the details of an entire growing system over the full life of the enterprise. The Ecological Farm makes complex, sometimes messy, ecological concepts and practices understandable to all growers, and makes healthy farming, in which nature is invited to participate, possible."--

    Hver dag lukker to danske landbrug. Fremskriver vi udviklingen, er der om godt et årti én enkelt industriel landbrugsgigant tilbage i Danmark. Dansk landbrug er fanget i en dødsspiral, hvor landmænd presser bedriften, jorden og økonomien til bristepunktet. Konkurserne står i kø, mens fødevarekvaliteten og dyrevelfærden lider. Men der er alternativer, viser Jørgen Steen Nielsen. Nøgleordet er fællesskab - nye produktionsfællesskaber, nye ejerskabsformer, nye samtaler mellem land og by.Det gælder vores mad, fra vores jord.

    The rice grain, an apparently modest staple in numerous cooking styles all over the planet, remains as a worldwide rural symbol of colossal significance. As quite possibly of the most broadly devoured and developed crop, rice fills in as a foundation of food security for a critical part of the worldwide populace. Its importance stretches out past the bounds of the kitchen, affecting social practices, financial elements, and horticultural scenes. Rice, logically known as Oryza sativa, holds a focal spot in the dietary propensities for millions, especially in Asia where it is a dietary staple. Its flexibility makes it a vital piece of a horde of dishes, from sushi in Japan to biryani in India. The healthy benefit of rice lies in its complicated starches, giving a significant wellspring of energy for the people who depend on it as a dietary staple.Developed across different environments and landscapes, rice adjusts to a scope of natural circumstances, from overwhelmed paddies to rainfeduplands. The assortments of rice are pretty much as different as the way of life that develop them, with various strains fit to explicit conditions and culinary inclinations. This flexibility makes rice a versatile yield, fit for enduring different climatic difficulties. The worldwide significance of rice is highlighted by its job in tending to food security challenges. For billions of individuals, especially in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, rice fills in as an essential wellspring of calories and food. Its development and utilization designs are profoundly intertwined with the occupations of millions of smallholder ranchers who depend on rice cultivating for the purpose of resource. Monetarily, the rice business contributes essentially to the jobs of ranchers, work in related areas like processing and transportation, and public economies all in all. The worldwide rice exchange is a powerful market, with significant sending out and bringing in nations partaking in a complicated snare of global business. Rice-delivering countries, like China, India, and Vietnam, assume significant parts in molding the worldwide rice market elements. The development of rice has additionally formed scenes and environments, affecting water the board practices and encouraging biodiversity in rice paddies. Conventional rice development rehearses, for example, patio cultivating and incorporated bug the board, feature the complex connection between rice cultivating and ecological supportability. Present day horticultural innovations, including high-yielding assortments and accuracy cultivating strategies, keep on changing the rice development scene, influencing both efficiency and ecological contemplations.Additionally, the social meaning of rice is significant. It is implanted in customs, functions, and culinary practices across different societies. The development and reaping of rice are frequently joined by celebrations and festivities that mirror the profound social associations among networks and this fundamental grain.Despite a quickly developing worldwide populace and the difficulties presented by environmental change, the significance of rice as a staple harvest takes on uplifted importance. Logical progressions, including the improvement of environment versatile rice assortments, add to endeavors pointed toward guaranteeing worldwide food security

    Millets are ancient grains that have been cultivated by humans for centuries, and they have recently emerged as a crucial staple food in numerous cultures owing to their abundant essential nutrients and their resilience to changing climates, requiring fewer resources for growth. In the face of the current climate crisis, the spotlight on millets as a cornerstone of sustainable societies has intensified. The Role of Women in Cultivating Sustainable Societies Through Millets delves into the significance of millets in sustainable agriculture and the indispensable role that women play in their cultivation and promotion. This book seeks to advocate for the cultivation and consumption of millets as a pathway to constructing sustainable societies. However, it goes beyond mere cultivation, as it critically recognizes and highlights the pivotal role of women in this transformative process. Drawing from millennia of historical perspectives, the book examines how women have been key agents of change in millet cultivation, shaping its cultivation techniques, preservation, and the propagation of traditional knowledge across generations. To further solidify the book's foundation, it includes compelling case studies, illustrating successful real-world applications of millet cultivation and its socio-economic impact, making this book a timely and essential resource for students, researchers, academicians, and industry professionals alike.

    "With decades of knowledge and proven, common-sense methods from "The Barefoot Farmer," this practical guide to biodynamic principles and practices will appeal to growers of every scale and experience level. In Barefoot Biodynamics, organic grower Jeff Poppen-"The Barefoot Farmer"-combines tales from his personal history of building a harmonious farm community in rural Tennessee with the practical applications of biodynamic principles and the deep aspects of the biodynamic methods that continue to make his farm a success today. Jeff's friendly, direct, and humorous writing will appeal not only to the biodynamic-curious, but also to farmers and gardeners who have experimented with the biodynamic approach and are looking for a deeper understanding of the practice. Rooted in the teachings of biodynamic pioneer Rudolf Steiner, Jeff's unique insights and deep reflections on "guiding lines" of biodynamic growing are an invaluable resource. Those "guiding lines" include: -producing a farm's fertility using cover crops, compost, and other on-farm inputs -enjoying the renewing power of farm festivals -augmenting scientific knowledge with the power of observation and intuition -avoiding chemical fertilizers -understanding that carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen make up 95 percent of the physical structure of plants and are freely available in the air around us -enhancing the availability of critical minerals such as silica and lime through good farming practices -building humus-rich soil teeming with microbial life -using homeopathic preparations to heal and enrich the soil In addition, Jeff walks the reader through the eight lectures on farming given by Steiner in 1924, summarizing important points from each lecture and "translating" them from Steiner's profound yet sometimes impenetrable vocabulary into plain language. In Barefoot Biodynamics, Jeff provides new insight to this these enigmatic lectures, revealing an often overlooked yet cost-effective farming method rooted in common sense"

    This book features five peer-reviewed reviews on ensuring the welfare of broilers.The first chapter considers the range of factors that pose a significant threat to broiler welfare, focussing on the impact of fast-growing broilers and high stocking densities. The chapter reviews how these factors have been addressed within the European Union through the inclusion of two case studies. The second chapter builds on research covered in the first chapter and details the welfare issues that can arise as a result of intensively reared broiler flocks. The chapter discusses the development of leg disorders and lameness, as well as contact dermatitis.The third chapter reviews the major welfare issues related to the management of broiler breeders, including feed and water restriction, excisions and the potential for management strategies to have transgenerational effects.The fourth chapter similarly addresses the welfare issues that can arise in the housing of broiler breeders, but instead focusses on the impact of these factors on increased levels of aggression and consequent aggressive behaviour, such as feather-pecking.The final chapter explores the use of group-level technologies to monitor and automate poultry welfare assessments of broilers, focussing on the use of visual images retained from CCTV and video, as well as sound and temperature sensing.

    Circular Economy and Manufacturing presents a roadmap of optimized, flexible, efficient, effective, and competitive green production strategies for the manufacturing industry and its multiple stakeholders. The volume is meant to be an excellent springboard for further discussion and research into new frameworks of best practices in view of achieving more socially responsible and sustainable organizations in a not-so-distant future. Circular economy can serve as a key building block for the sustainability targets of manufacturing companies. Although the term itself has long been established, we see that proper implementation of a circular economy model across entire manufacturing value chains is still lacking and remains a challenge for companies. However, there are clearly visible and good examples of circular economy standards which have already been applied and are generating value among multiple layers.

    Regenerative kulturer tager udgangspunkt i økologisk design og værner om og dyrker biokulturel overflod til fordel for menneskehedens fremtidige generationer. De er i stand til vedvarende at lære og transformere sig som reaktion – og forberedelse – på uundgåelige forandringer. En regenerativ kultur opstår ved, at vi både individuelt og kollektivt finder frem til og udlever nye måder at relatere til os selv, samfundet og livet som helhed på i stedet for at gentage usunde adfærdsmønstre og tænkemåder, der ikke længere tjener os. Daniel Christian Wahl giver i bogen en vidtfavnende analyse af, hvad der er galt med vores samfund, organisationer, ideologier, verdenssyn og kulturer – og hvordan man kan rette op herpå. Bogen dækker områder som landbrug, design, økologi, økonomi, bæredygtighed, organisationer og samfundet som helhed. Han mener, at vi skal redesigne det finansielle og økonomiske system på alle skalaer – fra lokal til regional til global – hvis vi skal gøre det muligt for transformativ innovation at udfolde sit kreative potentiale, Men den mest grundlæggende transformation handler om at stille kritiske spørgsmål ved vores måde at tænke på, vores verdenssyn og vores værdisystem. Og den skal ske, inden vi går i gang med at ”redesigne den menneskelige tilstedeværelse på Jorden”. Det er ikke muligt for menneskeheden at slukke lyset, forlade lokalet og begynde forfra i et nyt lokale, der byder på større potentiale. Vi har kun én planet at bo på. Bæredygtighed og regenerative kulturer er ifølge Daniel Christian Wahl ikke slutpunkter, der skal nås, men vedvarende processer af kollektiv læring. Vi skal bevæge os fra ”mere er bedre” til ”bedre er bedre”. Bogen er en invitation til samtale og en opfordring til at leve de livgivende spørgsmål dybere. Den stiller mange spørgsmål, og der, hvor den foreslår svar og løsninger, skal vi forstå dem som opfordringer til at spørge til deres relevans i forbindelse med overgangen til regenerative kulturer. "Denne bog er et værdifuldt bidrag til den vigtige diskussion af det verdenssyn og det værdisystem, vi har brug for for at redesigne vores virksomheder, økonomier og teknologier – faktisk hele vores kultur – for at gøre dem regenerative snarere end destruktive." - Fritjof Capra, forfatter til Liv.
