Proponents of civic agriculture contend that sound agricultural development emerges from attention to social processes in communities
rather than from economics’ narrower focus on profi t-maximization.
For example, the civic agriculture approach is oriented toward establishing, maintaining, and strengthening local social and economic
systems, while the conventional/commodity agriculture approach is
directed toward economic globalization. The desired outcome for conventional agriculture development is a global (mass) market for food
articulating with standardized, low-cost, mass production of basic
commodities. Development guided by civic agriculture principles is
predicated on food production and consumption maintaining at least
some linkages to the local community
