ILEIA, the Centre for learning on sustainable agriculture, is excited to announce the launch of its new magazine - Farming Matters: Small-scale agriculture for a sustainable society.
With a catchy new name and updated new look, Farming Matters takes the successes of LEISA Magazine into the future, highlighting the relevance of family farming in today’s world. This means keeping to our core subject matter of sustainable small-scale family farming, while broadening our content to appeal to a wider audience, in print and online.
Farming Matters will put local experiences in a global context, bringing you background to the news, opinions, debate, and practical examples of how sustainable, small-scale farming contributes to providing food security, social justice, and a healthy environment. We aim to increase interactions with and between readers through encouraging you to join in the debates, send in your contributions or opinions and keep in touch with us on the internet.
The magazine is for development practitioners, educators, researchers, policy makers, farmers, entrepreneurs, students, and anyone interested in agriculture and development. Each issue has a theme as well as global content. It is published four times a year and has subscribers in more than 150 countries. It will also be available online: www.ileia.org
Read Farming Matters – your source of information on all that matters in small scale agricultural development.
ILEIA is a member of the global AgriCultures Network, a network of eight organisations. The other members each publish a regional edition, in their own regional language. Together, the magazines reach more than 50,000 subscribers. For more information, see www.agriculturesnetwork.org

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture is a wonderful idea. Worldwide awareness is growing. Magazine of this kind can lead to sharing ideas and brainstorming between scientists.

I would like to know if anyone could tell me out of 100%, how many people do you think still read magazines and for what? Is it for fashion, gossip, news, to purchase products or other reasons? I would like to know if anyone could tell me this, or has anyone did any research on this. I need answers for my research?
