15 Citations | The results suggest that while organic farming is spread over most of the country, there is evidence of three main spatial clusters. |
The idea behind this paper is to show that the mission of social farming is consistent with the economic approach adopted by civil economics that emerged in XV century Italy. | |
The study area extends on the southernmost part of the Bradano Foredeep, southern Italy, and roughly coincides with the Greek settlement territory of Metaponto and its Chora (the area of influence of Greek colonists). | |

How Italy is developed ?5 answersItaly's economic development has seen various phases since the mid-nineteenth century. Initially, from 1861 to 1913, Italy experienced steady growth, accelerating in the last fifteen years of this period. Subsequently, the country went through phases marked by the World Wars, post-war growth until the mid-Seventies, and a period of "productive decentralization" from 1975 to 2001. The industrialization process in the 1950s led to limited union power and the emergence of three main phases: industrialization, rationalization, and crisis. Italy's economic structure evolved with dynamic industrialization in the 1950s and 1960s, characterized by rapid GDP growth, high investment rates, and export expansion. However, since the mid-1990s, Italy's economic growth has slowed compared to the EU average, facing challenges like high unemployment and significant internal debt.
What are Tomato Traditional and Heritage Agricultural Systems in Southern Italy?5 answersTraditional and heritage agricultural systems in Southern Italy refer to the cultivation and preservation of local tomato landraces. These landraces are traditional varieties that have been cultivated for generations and are still grown in certain regions of Southern Italy. These landraces possess unique genetic profiles and exhibit genetic diversity comparable to contemporary varieties. They are known for their specific stress tolerance, including drought tolerance, and have constitutive activation of ROS scavenging machinery. Additionally, there are specific traditional landraces, such as Regina tomato, which are listed as traditional agri-food products and have unique physical and chemical traits, including high concentrations of tocopherols, lycopene, and ascorbic acid. These traditional and heritage agricultural systems provide a valuable source of genetic variability for the improvement of commercial tomato varieties and can contribute to the development of sustainable farming practices.
What kind of farmer behavior that influence productivity?1 answersFarmer behavior that influences productivity includes farmer knowledge, attitudes, and skills. These factors have a significant impact on the productivity of farmers. In particular, aspects of knowledge and attitudes have been found to have a positive and significant effect on productivity, while skills may not have a significant effect. Additionally, the intentions and behavioral goals of farmers, as well as their perceived behavioral control and subjective norms, also play a role in influencing their actions and decisions related to productivity. Furthermore, the study on organic rice farming identified that farmer behavior in facing production risk can be categorized as risk averse or risk seeking, with different farmers making different decisions based on their perception of risk. Overall, farmer behavior, including knowledge, attitudes, intentions, and risk perception, has a significant influence on productivity in agriculture.
