Summary
Explores some of the linkages between biodiversit y and agriculture and takes steps toward identifying policies and practices that deserve attention in an attempt to harness biodiversity for improving rural well-being. The authors find that biodiversity and agriculture are intertwined: biodiversity is a vital resource for crop and livestock management, but without improved agriculture, most of the remaining habitats for wildlife will be destroyed to make room for farms, plantations, and ranches.
