Les populations rurales sédentaires de la commune de Hombori (Mali) pratiquent presque toutes la culture de mil associée au petit élevage non transhumant. Au-delà des contraintes environnementales d’une région semi-aride, le maintien de l’agro-élevage repose sur une double maitrise, des territoires et des ressources, l’une et l’autre ne pouvant se confondre.
Le sud du Brésil qui possède un bon potentiel naturel en raison de son climat chaud et humide et de son relief favorable est voué principalement à l’élevage et aux cultures de soja, de riz et de maïs. Cette région, comme d’autres au Brésil, participe à la production de denrées agricoles pour le marché national et international. Elle est ainsi soumise à l’intensification des pratiques dont les impacts sur l’environnement sont notoires. L’étude concerne plus particulièrement le bassin versant de l’Ibicuí (46 800 km²), situé dans le sud-ouest de l’État de Rio Grande do Sul.
L’agriculture de conservation (AC) obéit à trois principes : travail du sol minimal, couverture du sol permanente et multiculture.

Dès lors elle a été mondialement diffusée au nom du développement durable.
