Abstract

ABSTRACT This study examines the determinants of resilience in Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) and strategies for CSA expansion, including the role of public policies, providing a genuine international comparison of inputs from CSA coordinators in Brazil and Spain. The results indicate that CSA projects with an engaged small consumer core group that supports the producer have additional tools to build resilience. Synergies with other like-minded social, educational, or environmental projects offer significant expansion opportunities. Distrust of CSA actors in public policies limits their ability to support the CSA movement, but indirect policy adjustments could have a favorable effects on CSA expansion.

社区支持农业作为有弹性的社会经济结构：合作和公共政策在巴西和西班牙的作用

摘要:本研究探讨了社区支持农业(CSA)弹性的决定因素和扩展CSA的策略，包括公共政策的作用，对巴西和西班牙CSA协调员的投入进行了真正的国际比较。结果表明，CSA项目有一个参与的小型消费者核心群体，支持生产者有额外的工具来建立弹性。与其他志同道合的社会，教育或环境项目的协同作用提供了重要的扩展机会。公共政策对CSA参与者的不信任限制了他们支持CSA运动的能力，但间接的政策调整可能对CSA的扩张产生有利影响。

期刊介绍： Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems is devoted to the rapidly emerging fields of agroecology and food system sustainability. By linking scientific inquiry and productive practice with transformative social action, agroecology provides a foundation for developing the alternative food systems of the future. The journal focuses on the changes that need to occur in the design and management of our food systems in order to balance natural resource use and environmental protection with the needs of production, economic viability, food security, and the social well-being of all people. Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems examines our current food systems from production to consumption, and the urgent need to transition to long-term sustainability. The journal promotes the study and application of agroecology for developing alternatives to the complex problems of resource depletion, environmental degradation, a narrowing of agrobiodiversity, continued world hunger, consolidation and industrialization of the food system, climate change, and the loss of farm land. The journal uses a food systems approach, and seeks experiences in agroecology that are on-farm, participatory, change-oriented, and backed by broad-based methodologies of sustainability analysis and evaluation.
