"This book is a pioneering, comparative study of the practice of intercropping (growing two
or more crops at once in the same field). Innis's meticulous analysis of the scientific base of
different traditional forms of agriculture in Jamaica, Nepal and India, is at the forefront of the
search for integrated systems of indigenous and modern agriculture. In his concluding chapter,
Innis proposes the return of the small farmer to the land and suggests how this might be done.
