Changing the default meal option at university events to reduce harmful environmental impacts
Animal agriculture is a leading contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and other harmful environmental impacts, which underscores the need to shift away from the consumption of animal-based products. One promising nudge intervention is making plant-based meals the default option, so we tested this approach at six different university events across four academic institutions for effecting sustainable dietary change. Event attendees pre-selected t…
Healthy beverage initiatives
The association between consumption of sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs) and diseases including diabetes, liver disease and dental disease is well known, yet SSBs continue to be aggressively promoted, including on university campuses. Healthy beverage initiatives (HBIs) are focused on improving health by decreasing consumption of SSBs. Some HBIs also aim to improve environmental sustainability, e.g. by substituting tap water for SSBs, including th…

The Influence of Environmentalism on Attitudes Toward Local Agriculture and Urban Expansion
This article uses the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) to examine attitudes toward local agriculture and land use issues in Santa Barbara County (SBC), California. To do so, we use data collected for the Central Coast Survey in 2010. Although our study has a narrow geographic scope, it has broad implications. Our results suggest that people with stronger pro-environment views support agriculture, and prefer it over urban expansion, but are also crit…

Food Globalization and Local Diversity
Globalization is often assumed to lead to a reduction in cultural and biological diversity, but a view from the beginning of plant domestication suggests that the interaction of foods with forces along the global-local continuum has outcomes for biological and cultural diversity that are contingent and difficult to predict. This phenomenon is apparent in the case of tejate, one of a family of beverages made with maize and cacao that have a very l…

Tejate
Although cacao is most familiar in industrialized Western societies in the form of a processed solid confection, for most of its history the seeds of Theobroma cacao have been most commonly used as ingredients in beverages. Today, in some of the more traditional communities of Mesoamerica, cacao continues to be used primarily in traditional local beverages. One such beverage is tejate, from the Central Valleys of Oaxaca, Mexico. Tejate is a cultu…

Scenarios as a Tool for Eliciting and Understanding Farmers' Biological Knowledge
Modern scientific knowledge and indigenous or traditionally based knowledge are often assumed to be fundamentally different and incomparable. Testing this assumption is important theoretically and for supporting scientist-farmer collaboration to improve farmers' well-being in their own terms. We illustrate the use of scenarios based on a basic biological model to understand farmers' theoretical biological knowledge. Scenarios depict aspects of th…

Afin de mettre en evidence les potentialites de l'anthropologie appliquee dans la recherche de solutions aux problemes de la mondialisation, l'A. propose d'elargir les definitions des concepts de mondialisation et d'anthropologie appliquee. Il soutient d'une part que la mondialisation resulte de processus aussi bien biophysiques que geopolitiques, il propose d'autre part de definir l'anthropologie appliquee en dehors des reifications essentialist…
Indian Agriculture, United States Agriculture, and Sustainable Agriculture
INTRODUCTION\n"Sustainability" is the inescapable focus of almost any discussion of agriculture today, and Indian agriculture is no exception. An important focus in such discussions is the relative sustainability of conventional industrial agriculture, often promoted in Indian country by agencies of the U.S. government, compared with that of indigenous or traditional agriculture based on Native American agriculture before the European invasion.\n…

The World's Crop Genetic Resources and the Rights of Indigenous Farmers
Farmer or folk crop varieties developed over many generations by indigenous farmers are an important component of global crop genetic resources for use by both industrial and indigenous agriculture. Currently there is a debate between advocates of indigenous farmers' rights in their folk varieties and the dominant world system, which vests intellectual property rights to crop genetic resources only in users of those resources for industrial agric…

Migration in West Africa
Local migration in response to population pressure is part of the history of northeast Ghana. First by physical coercion, then by economic coercion, colonialism drastically changed the pattern of migration to one of long-distance movement from north-east Ghana and the northern savannas in general to southern Ghana. Migration in turn affected social organisation, agriculture and population dynamics n i savanna communities. While colonial policy wa…

Developmental Stage Age Groups and African Population Structure
African population structures based on censuses exhibit a distinctive pattern of distortion. It is often assumed that the cause for this distortion is systematic biases in age estimates by census enumerators and respondents influenced by perceptions of social and biological development. African developmental stage age groups are the cultural codification of such perceptions. I describe developmental stage age groups among the Kusasi of Bawku Dist…

The Relationship of Farm Residency Status to Demographic and Service Characteristics of Agricultural Injury Victims in Central Wisconsin
This study performed a surveillance of a defined population in central Wisconsin during a two‐year period that included six months of follow‐up. The study included those who worked and lived on farms and those who only worked on farms. The injury rate for farm residents was 3.15 injuries per 100 persons per year. However, 195 of the 510 injuries (38.2%) involved persons who were not farm residents. For nonfarm residents, 88.7 percent of the victi…
