This book offers a unique cultivation of mind as to how we can go for stewardship and conservation policy and intervention for small farm reality. It has gone far beyond the ’romanticized’ farm stewardship, for bigger holding sizes, say more than one hectare of land, yet to take account the feasibility of stewardship operations for tiny holdings, 1-1.5 hectares as predominant in most of the Asian countries based on hard evidences. While American and European farms are mostly belonging to consolidated and big size holdings, Asian part of global agriculture has been coercive in the form of soil erosion, water contamination and dwindling farm income, which are mostly due to marginalization and impoverishment of both income and livelihood from farm. This is really a difficult task, of course is of huge scholastic interest, for making the farmers understand that through proper stewardship and conservation interventions the invaluable resources like land, water and biodiversity need to be protected and put to constant regenerating practices.
