Dear friends and colleagues,

I want to share with you an open-access book that I co-edited for the Earthscan Food and Agricultural series of the publisher Taylor and Francis/Routledge.

The book is entitled “Transforming Agriculture in Southern Africa”. It contains 34 short chapters written by experts and covers a wide range of topics across scientific fields dealing with agriculture of the smallholder farmer.

The book targets Southern Africa but the chapters are designed to be of importance where ever smallholder farmers are fighting for food security and survival.

The book can be downloaded as a pdf file or read online in order to save space on the computer.

Please send this link to your colleagues and if you have access to Newsletters of organizations working in international development in agriculture please forward it to them too.

I hope you can use the book in your work and maybe even in classes for students.

Best regards

Richard Sikora
