Farming for Our Future examines the policies and legal reforms necessary to accelerate the adoption of practices that can make agriculture in the United States climate-neutral or better. These proven practices will also make our food system more resilient to the impacts of climate change. Agriculture's contribution to climate change is substantial--much more so than official figures suggest--and we will not be able to achieve our overall mitigation goals unless agricultural emissions sharply decline. Fortunately, farms and ranches can be a major part of the climate solution, while protecting biodiversity, strengthening rural communities, and improving the lives of the workers who cultivate our crops and rear our animals. The importance of agricultural climate solutions can not be underestimated; it is a critical element both in ensuring our food security and limiting climate change. This book provides essential solutions to address the greatest crises of our time.

"This bibliography is the first major output of the project ""Sociology in the U.S. Department of Agriculture: the Galpin-Taylor years, 1 9 1 9- 1 95 3."" This project is being conducted under a cooperative agreement between the Agriculture and Rural Economy Division, Economic Research Service, U.S. Depa rtment of Agriculture and the Department of Rural Sociology, New York State College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Cornell University. We are grateful to both organiza tions for providing funds. Financial support has also been provided by the Cornell University Agricultural Experiment Station and by a grant from the budget for the Rural Sociological Society's 50th Anniversary Committee. The Farm Foundation awarded funds to support meetings of an Advisory Panel of former key members of the staff of the Division of Farm Popu lation and Rural Life. The American Sociological Association, the Rural Sociological Society, and the Cornell University Agricultural Experiment Station provided funds to assist in covering publication costs. "
