Innovative Verantwortungsgemeinschaften durch nachhaltigen und Ökologi-schen Landbau – Beispiele aus Mecklenburg-Vorpommern und Kalifornien

Abstract

The term Innovation is nowadays more frequently used together with so called High technologies like Genetic engineering (BBAW 2005) and only rarely for rather soft and social-environmentally sound practices like organic farming (NIGGLI 2002). Some regions in Europe and North America try hard to protect their innovative regional development concepts of which organic farming is an important part. They improve their networking activities on a local, regional and sometimes even global level. The following paper highlights such innovative example regions in California and the Ger-man state Mecklenburg- Western Pomerania
