Organic agriculture and stability of food supply
Stability of the food supply is broadly related to the environmental conditions that allow for sustainable food production and encourage productivity as well as to the economic conditions that allow for sustainable supplies at reasonable prices. This paper focuses on the interactions and interdependencies between farming practices and environmental conditions. By producing food, farmers can improve or degrade the environment they depend on. Both favorable and stable environmental conditions and agricultural systems resistant or resilient to environmental changes are crucial for the stability of food production
