The sustainable livelihoods approach: a frame for furthering our understanding of organic farming systems
Publikation: Bidrag til bog/antologi/rapport › Konferencebidrag i proceedings › Forskning › fagfællebedømt
The rapid development of organic agriculture on a global scale has led to an increased
inclusion of producers in developing and transitional countries in the organic food
chain. In order to enhance the theoretical frame for the analysis and understanding of
the impact that inclusion in the organic food chain has on producers and their families,
an analysis was conducted of the use of the Sustainable Livelihoods Approach (SLA).
The SLA provides a holistic and integrative approach which researchers can use as
the overriding frame for their research. The application of the approach is
recommended as it enables us to maintain important elements of the sustainability
vision, yet emphasises that a number of assets influence farmers' livelihoods and it
maintains the focus on salience, legitimacy, and credibility in the research.
