This book, focusing on the agriculture sector, provides useful analysis
of the green economy implementation context and a practical framework
for implementing vegetable crop production green economy projects. The
book addresses a distinct gap, as there are currently no guidelines
available for planning and implementing green economy projects in the
agriculture sector. The book combines information from desktop reviews
and field research on vegetable production in a green economy context in
South Africa in order to bridge the gap between the theoretical green
economy concept and practical implementation issues that would be
encountered at the project level. It includes a step-by-step process for
translating abstract green economy principles into tangible projects on
the ground, so that the potential benefits of a green economy are
realizable.
