The New American Farmer

This link will bring you to a page that has another link to a pdf document of the book The New American Farmer. At the end of the first paragraph click on "view."

The New American Farmer is a collection of case studies of American farmers who are farming in a new way that could be labeled sustainable. It is easier to evaluate agriculture under the criteria of sustainability because farmers are dealing with the resources on their land (i.e. soil), and if they are depleting soil quality they will notice quickly.
