Abstract

Has the agricultural system, and in particular that of Lombardy, been able to face reforms and epochal changes ? And if so, in which forms and with which outcomes ? The book deals with the complex challenge of reconstructing some moments of transformation of Lombard agriculture, capturing the factors of resilience and not only those of stagnation. From the end of the eighteenth century, during the austrian and french dominations, the Lombard agricultural worlds, faced with the effects of legislative reforms and production crises, experienced an ability of the system to adapt to change and, then, to renew itself in terms of crops, contractual relationships and social aspects but also new sectors linked to industry or services. Despite the long-term conservation of economic and social relations, one part of Lombard agriculture was able to seize renewal opportunities. This connotation is kept alive throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and is closely linked to the role of some institutions and social groups that were particularly active in the dissemination of agronomic knowledge, technical innovation and management of private and collective ressources.

Abstract

Annotation Sustainability covers environmental, social and economic dimensions, and requires a multi-disciplinary approach in order to examine, explore and critically engage with issues and advances in its related areas. As we are aware, climate change is a certainty and it affects many economic sectors, including agriculture, particularly production of crop and livestock enterprises. Vast regional differences in these impacts are expected for various parts of the world, culminating in changes in trade patterns, and perhaps eventually even threatening the food security in certain parts of the world. Agricultural sustainability may be especially threatened by climate extremes, such as heat waves, droughts, and floods. However, not all changes induced by climate change would be negative; some may even be positive. Undoubtedly, there would be winners and losers within a nation, as well as among countries. Achieving sustainability would require changes in the way we manage agriculture. Equally important in this discourse is to find solutions to achieve sustainability in the wake of climate change, one of the major threats to sustainability. This book is devoted to various aspect of sustainable agriculture and climate change and their interplay.
