Extractions: List Marie E. Walsh, Daniel G. de la Torre Ugarte, Hosein Shapouri, Stephen P. Slinsky Authors are Economist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Research Assistant Professor at the University of Tennessee, Economist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and Research Associate at the University of Tennessee. Invited paper and presentation given at Sustainable Energy: New Challenges for Agriculture and Implications for Land Use, Wageningen, The Netherlands, May 18-20, 2000, organized by Wageningen University, and sponsored, in part, by: Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, The C.T. de Wit Graduate School for Production Ecology and Resource Conservation, The Mansholt Institute, Wageningen Institute for Environmental and Climate Research, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, and European Association of Agricultural Economists In response to the oil embargoes of the 1970s, programs to develop alternative energy sources were begun in the U.S. Energy security still remains a concern, but other issues such as global climate change, air and water quality, and economic development have added new immediacy to the development of alternative energy systems. Among the alternatives is biomass energy. In addition to research on conversion technologies, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) established, in 1978, the Bioenergy Feedstock Development Program (BFDP) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The BFDP is developing new crops and cropping systems that can be used as dedicated bioenergy feedstocks. The program has screened numerous potential crop candidates to identify promising species and research frequently involves collaborative efforts with university and USDA researchers. Recent efforts are focusing on three cropsswitchgrass, hybrid poplar, and willow.
Sustainable Agriculture Farming Systems UC Davis Sustainable agriculture Center, Russell Ranch Are alternativeagricultural management practices right for water runoff? http://safs.ucdavis.edu/
Extractions: UC Davis Sustainable Agriculture Center, Russell Ranch On June 23, SAFS held its annual Field Day. The Field Day was a great success, attracting participants representing a broad range of agricultural interests. Attendees were shuttled to four field presentations around the UCD Russell Ranch research facilities ranging from water conservation to soil food web dynamics to agronomic considerations in reduced tillage systems.

Reuse Of Wastewater For Agriculture In this case, applying wastewater to agricultural lands is a more economicalalternativeand Confronting the realities of wastewater use in agriculture. http://www.iwmi.cgiar.org/health/wastew/
Extractions: Reuse of Wastewater for Agriculture In rural and peri-urban areas of most developing countries, the use of sewage and wastewater for irrigation is a common practice. Wastewater is often the only source of water for irrigation in these areas. Even in areas where other water sources exist, small farmers often prefer wastewater because its high nutrient content reduces or even eliminates the need for expensive chemical fertilizers. Concern for human health and the environment are the most important constraints in the reuse of wastewater. While the risks do need to be carefully considered, the importance of this practice for the livelihoods of countless smallholders must also be taken into account. The aim of IWMI research on wastewater irrigation is to maximize the benefits to the poor who depend on the resource while minimizing the risks. Wastewater irrigation provides income for small farmers Many wastewater irrigators are not landowning farmers, but landless people that rent small plots to produce income-generating crops such as vegetables that thrive when watered with nutrient-rich sewage. Across Asia, Africa and Latin America these wastewater micro-economies support countless poor people.
