The season for summer projects is upon us. I apologise for adding
another request for thoughts/information to the pile.

I am presently completing a Master's in Sustainable Agriculture at Wye
College (University of London, Britain) and have chosen the theme of
agricultural sustainability assessment for my report. I was wondering
what you think of (the feasibility of) assessing agricultural
sustainability, or whether you know of any agricultural projects
which are attempting to put the issues of sustainability
criteria/indicators into practice? Having only joined SANET
recently, I may be rehashing ground you have already covered (I heard
there was a good, intense discussion on the differences between
organic and sustainable agriculture which I am sorry I missed) -
in which case, does anyone still have the emails involved which they
could pass on to me?

Thank you for your help. Alexia Coke
