Extract: Farming systems research (FSR), in its broadest sense, involves the application of the systems perspective to the study of a farm. The purposes of such research could vary from a broad understanding of system functions to understanding a narrow subset of particular interactions. Thus, it encompasses any research concerned with a farming subsystem or the whole farm system.

Extract: This paper attempts to define and discuss Farming Systems Research (FSR) in a somewhat narrow sense as to how the MSU Task Force may be able to progress in a meaningful and practical manner. In the arena of agriculture and food production, in which Title XII is involved, there are basic requirements for professionals from four disciplines; (1) biology (2) physical technology, (3) economics and (4) sociology. The FSR approach is focused towards the farm family and the family farmer.

Extract: I argue that the fundamental and primary objective of F.S.R. is (or should be) to increase (world) food availability and agricultural production and to develop or use resources in a manner that will promote a "better" standard of living, (as this concept is generally understood) for all mankind.

Extract: A farming system is defined as a human group and the resources and environment that it manages in producing plant and/or animal products to meet its direct or perceived needs for sustenance and quality of life. Farming Systems Research may be defined as a systematic analysis of farming systems, including their similarities and dissimilarities. The purpose of farming systems research is to study farms with similar and/or different environments, crops and/or animals and production practices to see how they meet demands for perceived human needs and quality of life.
