ICRAF has been afforded a great opportunity to link in agroforestry (and CGIAR work in general) more to the growing field of sustainable agriculture. It is also an opportunity to strengthen the social science focus in our work as requested by our Board.
Wearing an ICRAF hat, DDG ICRAF - Dr. Tony Simons has been invited to be an Editor of the Thomson rated International Journal of Sustainable Agriculture – a quarterly publication.
Tony invites you to check out the journal and internet accessible articles from it by clicking here.
Specifically, The International Journal of Agricultural Sustainability (IJAS) is a cross-disciplinary, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing the understanding of sustainability in agricultural and food systems.
IJAS publishes both theoretical developments and critical appraisals of new evidence on what is not sustainable about current or past agricultural and food systems, as well as on transitions towards agricultural and rural sustainability at farm, community, regional, national and international levels, and through food supply chains. It is committed to clear and consistent use of language and logic, and the use of appropriate evidence to substantiate empirical statements.
IJAS increases knowledge on what technologies and processes are contributing to agricultural sustainability, what policies, institutions and economic structures are preventing or promoting sustainability, and what relevant lessons should be learned.
