Abstract: With the -introduction of Westernized farming technologies in the late 1950s, modern agriculture in Belize has depended on expensive and poisonous external inputs. Decentralized efforts by NGOs during the last decade in the• promotion of sustainable agricultural practices is documented and a few recommendations on what can be done in the near future are offered.
