Benefits for all: how learning for farming can build social capital in communities
Social capital helps communities respond positively to change. This research into managing change through learning in communities and in small businesses, particularly farm businesses, has highlighted the importance of relationships between people and the formal and informal infrastructure of communities to the quality of outcomes experienced by communities, businesses and individuals. This research presents a model of simultaneous building and use of social capital and explores the ways in which learning, as part of an agricultural community, can be used to bring benefits to all.
