Abstract

The aim of the chapter is to show the possible impact of policulture farming on some determinants of sustainable agricultural development, especially from the point of view of economic viability, biodiversity, and land degradation. Increasing the area under polyculture is one of the main solutions to the present environmental problems. The key constraints are economic pressures due to the question of the cost-effectiveness of such a mode of production and the need to provide sufficient food for a growing population, especially in developing countries. The results of the research show that policulture (organic agriculture) should be favored, while monoculture farming must be adequately directed and put in the function of achieving ecological goals of sustainable development as much as possible. In addition, on the example of European countries, it was assessed that there are good conditions for further “greening” of agriculture, bearing in mind the movement of the analyzed indicators.
混养在农业可持续发展和防止土地退化中的作用
本章的目的是展示政治文化农业对可持续农业发展的一些决定因素的可能影响,特别是从经济可行性、生物多样性和土地退化的角度来看。增加混养面积是解决当前环境问题的主要方法之一。主要的限制因素是由于这种生产方式的成本效益问题造成的经济压力,以及需要为日益增长的人口,特别是发展中国家的人口提供足够的粮食。研究结果表明,应大力发展有机农业,而应充分指导单一农业,使其尽可能发挥实现可持续发展生态目标的作用。此外,以欧洲国家为例,经评估,考虑到所分析的指标的变动,存在着进一步“绿化”农业的良好条件。
