Small Farmers for Global Food Security
The Demise and Reinvention of Moral Ecologies in Indonesia
Modern agriculture has damaged ecosystems and diets. A growing movement of small farmers rejects this, re-creating food systems based on moral ecology—a concept that regenerates nature and serves the common good. We argue they could feed the entire world and eradicate hunger.
