“…The most commonly applied theoretical concept mentioned in studies was the recovery model (mentioned in four studies) (Anthony, ). Two concepts were philosophical rather than theoretical and did not offer a mechanistic explanation for how care farming might contribute to well‐being; namely, “existential issues” and “anthroposophy” (O'Connor & Chamberlain, ; Steiner, ). These were excluded from the process of developing a theoretical framework.…”

Care farming (also called social farming) is the therapeutic use of agricultural and farming practices. Service users and communities supported through care farming include people with learning disabilities, mental and physical health problems, substance misuse, adult offenders, disaffected youth, socially isolated older people and the long term unemployed. Care farming is growing in popularity, especially around Europe. This review aimed to understand the impact of care farming on quality of life, depression and anxiety, on a range of service user groups. It also aimed to explore and explain the way in which care farming might work for different groups. By reviewing interview studies we found that people valued, among other things, being in contact with each other, and feeling a sense of achievement, fulfilment and belonging. Some groups seemed to appreciate different things indicating that different groups may benefit in different ways but, it is unclear if this is due to a difference in the types of activities or the way in which people take different things from the same activity. We found no evidence that care farms improved people's quality of life and some evidence that they might improve depression and anxiety. Larger studies involving single service user groups and fully validated outcome measures are needed to prove more conclusive evidence about the benefits of care farming.

“…Early work in general translation history dates back to Edmond Cary's history of 'great French translators' (Cary 1963). Works of a general nature followed this publication throughout the 1970s and 1980s and a brief list includes works by Steiner (1975), Kelly (1979), Berman (1984), Ballard (1992), Vermeer (1992), Robinson (1997). Since the 1980s a number of developments have enabled an increased focus on the history of the practice of translation, rather than translation theory.…”

The article offers an overview of the development of translation history during the past decade. It focuses on recent debates, research areas and methodological avenues in translation history with special emphasis on interdisciplinarity. Driven by a move away from a Eurocentric view of translation, researchers have become interested in producing connected and comparative histories of translation. The dialogue with the general field of history has led to the adoption of new methods and forms of analysis, such as microhistory, histoire croisée, archival research, oral history and digital translation history, and to the birth of new areas of research such as the role of translation in conflict and war.

“…However, the difference lies in the use of plant and mineral preparations as additives to compost and soil sprays-"biodynamic preparations"-and in following a planting schedule for cultivation, sowing and harvesting based on cosmic forces and rhythms and, particularly, on Moon rhythm (Table 3) [41,42]. This variant of organic agriculture, initiated in a series of lectures given by Rudolf Steiner [43] in 1924, is considered by some authors as an alternative approach to modern agriculture (see review in Brock et al [44]), while others consider it as not being a science-based practice (see review in Chalker-Scott [41]). The latter brands it as a scam of great implantation in countries as advanced as Germany where it has its origin and from where Brussels is pressured to accept its principles.…”

What Has Been Thought and Taught on the Lunar Influence on Plants in Agriculture? Perspective from Physics and Biology

et al. 2020

This paper reviews the beliefs which drive some agricultural sectors to consider the lunar influence as either a stress or a beneficial factor when it comes to organizing their tasks. To address the link between lunar phases and agriculture from a scientific perspective, we conducted a review of textbooks and monographs used to teach agronomy, botany, horticulture and plant physiology; we also consider the physics that address the effects of the Moon on our planet. Finally, we review the scientific literature on plant development, specifically searching for any direct or indirect reference to the influence of the Moon on plant physiology. We found that there is no reliable, science-based evidence for any relationship between lunar phases and plant physiology in any plant–science related textbooks or peer-reviewed journal articles justifying agricultural practices conditioned by the Moon. Nor does evidence from the field of physics support a causal relationship between lunar forces and plant responses. Therefore, popular agricultural practices that are tied to lunar phases have no scientific backing. We strongly encourage teachers involved in plant sciences education to objectively address pseudo-scientific ideas and promote critical thinking.
