Is the increase of scale in the tropics a pathway to smallholders? Dimension and ecological zone effect on the mixed crop-livestock farms
Jaime Rangel,José Antonio Espinosa,Carmen de Pablos-Heredero,José Rivas,José Perea,Elena Angón,A. García-Martínez +6 more
TL;DR: The mixed crop-livestock system in tropic region requires an increase in herd size according to farm’s own productive structure, which is strongly influenced by the ecological zone, and systems would improve with the active participation of smallholders to identify and achieve best practices, higher technological adoption level and with an effective support from public and private Institutions.
