Plus d'informations
In Growing Food in a Hotter, Drier Land, Nab- han, one of the world's experts on the agricultural traditions of arid lands, draws upon the knowledge of traditional farmers in the Gobi Desert, the Arabi- an Peninsula, the Sahara Desert, and Andalusia, as well as the Sonoran, Chihuahuan, and Painted Deserts of North America.
Nabhan offers readers time-tried strategies to adapt and thrive, including: building greater mois- ture-holding capacity and nutrients in soils; protect- ing fields from damaging winds, drought, and floods; reducing heat stress on crops and livestock; select- ing fruits, nuts, succulents, and herbaceous perenni- als that are best suited to warmer, drier climates; and keeping pollinators in pace and in place with arid- adapted crop plants.
The book's detailed descriptions and diagrams show you how to implement these desert-adapted practices in your own backyard, orchard, or farm. Nabhan also includes colorful "parables from the field" that exemplify how desert farmers think about increasing the carrying capacity and resilience of the lands and waters they steward.
This unique book is useful not only for people living in the arid reaches of the Southwest or other desert regions. Its techniques and prophetic vision for achieving food security in the face of climate change may well need to be implemented across most of North America over the next half-century, and are already applicable in most of the semiarid West, Great Plains, and Southwest and adjacent regions of Mexico.
