Growing gas on the farm? Stakeholder perspectives on divergent models of biogas production in the United States
The agricultural sector has shown increasing interest in on-farm anaerobic digestion (OFAD) systems that convert livestock manure into biogas and digestate co-products. This study examined a potential OFAD supply chain that would use perennial crops, double crops, and other soil-building crops as the primary feedstocks (in addition to or instead of manure) for biogas production. More widespread use of such OFAD systems could enhance soil and wate…
Building knowledge infrastructure for diverse stakeholders to scale up co-production equitably
Farmer perspectives on collaboration: Evidence from agricultural landscapes in Arizona, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania
We examine how contextual factors affect farmer perspectives on collaborative environmental management in Arizona, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania, U.S., through a qualitative and comparative study. In doing so, we explore how contextual factors identified in foundational collaborative environmental governance research play out specifically in three agricultural cases. Findings from this study reveal four key cross-case themes from farmer perspectives…

A Conceptual Framework for Social, Behavioral, and Environmental Change through Stakeholder Engagement in Water Resource Management
Incorporating stakeholder engagement into environmental management may help in the pursuit of novel approaches for addressing complex water resource problems. However, evidence about how and under what circumstances stakeholder engagement enables desirable changes remains elusive. In this paper, we develop a conceptual framework for studying social and environmental changes possible through stakeholder engagement in water resource management, fro…

The long reach of lean retailing: Firm embeddedness and Wal-Mart's implementation of local produce sourcing in the US
With its corresponding concepts of societal, territorial, and network embeddedness, firm embeddedness offers a theoretical framework for analyzing how retailers develop strategies and business models determined by their home country context, but also adapted to new places, consumers, and networks. This paper uses firm embeddedness to examine food retailer adaptation within a changing home market, focusing on Wal-Mart's efforts to implement local …
Bioenergy experts and their imagined “obligatory publics” in the United States: Implications for public engagement and participation
Fixing food with ideas of “local” and “place”
Ideas of “local” and “place” appear frequently in current discussions and debates about food and agriculture, but they are kindred, not completely equivalent ideas. This paper highlights similarities and differences in the heuristic and political work of local and place by considering how both ideas seek to fix food. Two understandings of fixing food are distinguished and explored. First, place and local fix food through ontological work to mark,…

Food Deserts and Overweight Schoolchildren: Evidence from Pennsylvania
The concept of the food desert, an area with limited access to retail food stores, has increasingly been used within social scientific and public health research to explore the dimensions of spatial inequality and community well-being. While research has demonstrated that food deserts are frequently characterized by higher levels of poverty and food insecurity, there has been relatively little research examining the relationship between food dese…

The Green State: Rethinking Democracy and Sovereignty
Social Learning and Innovation at Retail Farmers' Markets
Retail farmers' markets are seen as key institutions in a more 'civic agriculture,' but little is known about how they promote small business entrepreneurship. Drawing on research in economic sociology and economic geography, this paper examines the role of social learning in vendor innovation. Data from a 1999 mail survey of farmers' market vendors in California, New York and Iowa show that business innovation, as represented by intensity of ven…

Sideline and Lifeline: The Cultural Economy of Maple Syrup Production1
Why do people engage in economically minor resource production activities? This field study of Vermont and Quebec maple syrup producers and their households and enterprises examines the diversion of motivations and concerns m contemporary maple syrup production. Farmers, former farmers, and non-farmers all produce maple syrup. The concept of embeddedness provides a framework for understanding how producers understand their involvement with maple …

Social Inclusion in a Midwest Local Food System Project
Local food system projects often incorporate explicit or implicit attention to social inclusion, but actual outcomes have rarely been closely examined. This article develops the concept of social inclusion, drawing particularly on notions of class and community. These themes are explored through a 1997 case study of a Midwest community supported agriculture project (CSA), which sought to increase low-income participation by providing financial su…
