Dear friends and colleagues,
Re: Sustainable Smallholder Agriculture Key to Tackling Hunger
A briefing from ActionAid UK’s Hunger Free Campaign highlights how sustainable smallholder agriculture offers a key solution to tackling hunger, while addressing poverty and climate change issues. There is increasing evidence showing that sustainable agriculture is highly productive in poor countries and brings other social and environmental benefits.
The briefing paper is reproduced in the attached file. It can also be downloaded at http://www.actionaid.org.uk/doc_lib/sustainable_agriculture_aa.pdf
With best wishes,
