System Mandalla
Today's agriculture and food systems are extraordinarly productive, but in the long run may not be sustainable. They have created tremendous pressure on natural resources and surrounding natural habitats, as well as compromising the economic health of rural communties, the food security of economically disadvantaged citizens, and the well-being of many of those who grow and harvest our food.
.
Through our research, education, and outreach programs, the system works to create agriculture and food systems that sustain both human communities and the environments in which they live. The growing public and academic interest in sustainable agriculture, organic food, resource-conserving farming techniques, and issues of social justice underscores the need for the type of work conducted by Mandalla staff, faculty, and students.
