I recently had a chance to see her garden again when I went home to our home province in Sorsogon for a brief vacation. There is  really nothing extraordinary about her garden but I think what is more important is that it serves the purpose of providing them with some common everyday vegetables which otherwise would have been bought from the market.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a country where 70% of the poor live in rural areas, one tool for poverty reduction that shows great potential is sustainable agriculture, a holistic systems approach to agriculture that adopts indigenous knowledge systems and demonstrates cultural sensitivity. This paper recounts evidence that sustainable agriculture has a positive effect on farm yields and income, accompanied by an initial increase in production costs which tapers significantly over time. The author gives policy recommendations to mainstream sustainable agriculture and lays guidelines for the establishment of a Department of Agriculture program on sustainable agriculture for poverty reduction.]]></description>
