Definition

  • Despite being tied to the land and drawing on centuries, if not millennia, of tradition and cumulative experience, agriculture has not been spared the effects of globalization. As an economic activity, it is losing its exceptionality and becoming one sector among others contributing to economic growth. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Studies; Agriculture Sector]
