ORGANIC AGRICULTURE FOR PARKS AND GARDENS
IFOAM LAUNCHES
THE "IFOAM AMENITY AGRICULTURE ALLIANCE (IAAA)" (IFOAM Insider | N° 6 - June 2012) VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL MÁS ABAJO.
On May 25, 2012 in Shanghai, China, 55
people attended the launch and signing ceremony of the latest IFOAM
self-organized structure, the IFOAM AMENITY AGRICULTURE ALLIANCE (IAAA), which
builds the platform for worldwide recreation agriculture. Amenity agriculture
covers all the forms of agriculture used for parks, gardens, sporting fields,
golf courses, resorts, hotels, road sides and other public areas where plants
are grown. People not only want to eat food that is grown without pesticides,
they want to be able to walk, play, sit and work in public areas that have not
been sprayed with toxic chemicals: for this reason, IAAA has a very important
role in promoting methods to manage these areas by using organic practices. The
IAAA head office is located in Beijing, China and it has gained the general
financial support by the Chinese Government.
