Forests & Forestry Editorial Review
The third edition of "Agroecology: The Ecology of Sustainable Food Systems" is an informative and insightful read that sheds light on the benefits of polyculture and the role of nature in developing sustainable food systems. The author, Stephen Gliessman, provides a comprehensive overview of agroecology, covering a range of topics from the principles of agroecology to the application of agroecological practices. While the book doesn't offer detailed instructions for implementing these practices, it provides readers with a valuable framework for thinking about sustainable agriculture. Although some readers have noted minor defects in the book, the overall Consensus is that it is a great source of information on agroecology.
