Mountains can produce a large variety of crops that are not available from the plains. There are two main general challenges facing mountain agriculture that includes: Market accessibility, which is not exclusive to selling the products but also sourcing the inputs as well, as they are usually far from the community clusters. Labor availability, mountain agriculture is a family based agriculture as no one will go far to a mountain and get up it to find work, in the same time mountain agriculture faces out-migration to cities and community clusters for high education and better jobs. Mountain agriculture has big economic development potential and its contribution to food security can be easily increased by increasing its efficiency and maintaining its biodiversity, this book is addressing the real potential of mountain farming.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 1 Types of Crop Production in Mountains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 2 Livestock Production in Mountains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 3 Fisheries in Mountains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 4 Beekeeping in Mountains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 5 Suitable Environment for Mountain Agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 6 Key Challenges for Agriculture in Mountain Areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 7 Markets For Mountain Agricultural Products\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 8 Countries That Practice Mountain Agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 9 Policy Perspectives on Mountain Agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 10 The Future of Mountain Agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Delve Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52637481992472,"sku":"9781774690796","price":89.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/mountain-agriculture-hardback-9781774690796","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
