Sustainability and climate variability in low-input peasant maize systems in the central Mexican highlands

2013-12-01

Abstract excerpt

One of the most important challenges for agriculture is addressing high climatic variability by creating productive, resilient and adaptable systems that are highly efficient in terms of water and energy use and having the aims of neither degrading nor contaminating the environment. In Mexico, these characteristics are fulfilled by many seasonal peasant agricultural systems. Systems utilizing native seeds produce...
