LEISA Magazine | 22.1 | March 2006
More than just describing a case, the aim of a documentation process is to build new knowledge. There is still a lot to learn about the techniques, methods, interactions and science involved in ecological agriculture.
LEISA, as a concept, is constantly evolving and changing, as a response to changes in the natural, social and political environments. Documenting new developments is therefore very important for the further development of LEISA.
The articles in this issue show that the purpose of documentation is not only descriptive: the process needs to examine closely what results and impacts are achieved in a given case, and why.
