16 pages., via online journal., This study examines community economic development (CED) initiatives and focuses on
community shared agriculture (CSA) as an alternative form of farming to industrialized agriculture.
CSA connects the farmers directly with consumers, such that both farmers and consumers share the
benefits and risks involved in agriculture. The purpose of this study was to understand what
motivates individuals to become involved in a CSA and what involvement in CSA means for them.
As a point of departure, the ecological and social psychological problems associated with
industrialized agriculture are elucidated. Empowerment theory, social vitality, and sense of
community were used as conceptual frameworks. Data were collected on a community farm in
midwest Ontario using a participant-observer mode of inquiry and open-ended interviews. The
themes that emerged were categorized under empowerment, social vitality, and sense of
community.
Online via University of Illinois Online Catalog - article search by subject (demonstration), Author draws upon fieldwork with farm advisors and growers, using the case of agricultural field trials to illustrate the role of "place" in applied science, highlight issues of "control" between scientists and their "public," and point to the challenges of producing consent through field trials.
Online via UI Library electronic suscription., Using Farmers Weekly as a data source, authors identified four main discourses of farmer acceptance of, and resistance to, quality assurnce schemes; and discourses which construct a particular representation of consumers.

Bulletin 3, Centre for Alternative Agricultural Media, Karnataka, India. 3 pages., Compares writing by farmers with that by subject experts/extension workers. "It could be clearly seen that 'farmer writing' is qualitatively better than 'writing for farmers' on various grounds."
"Farmers' lack of market power is the real enemy, so farmers and ranchers must work together to gain bargaining power, because, without it, independent farmers have little hope of survival." Mentions issue of farm organizations, agricultural trade and commodity groups misrepresenting their interests to Congress and policy makers by posing as the family farmer.

Assesses the attitudes of rural people towards farm electrification in the United States between 1920-1940. Hesitation of farmers to adopt electricity; impact of electricity on landscape transformation; implication of electrification for farm modernization.
Focuses on the adoption of mechanical corn pickers by farmers in Iowa between 1900-1952. Implications of the develoopment on technological advances and economic motivations. Effects of mechanical corn pickers on corn harvest. Impact of the machinery on modern agricultural development.
Analytic results indicate that producers having less elastic supply response capture more benefits per dollar expended than producers with more elastic supply response.
