institutions with programs in sustainable agriculture, including organic.

The Alternative Farming Systems Information Center (AFSIC), at the
National Agricultural Library (NAL), produces "Educational and Training
Opportunities in Sustainable Agriculture", updated each fall.
If you know of a program that should be added to this resource, be sure
to contact AFSIC to have it included in the 1996 edition.
