For example, words such as "biological," "ecological," "regenerative," "natural," "biodynamic," "low-input," "low-resource." "agroecological," and "eco-agriculture" are specific terms used by certain spokespersons and groups to refer to various alternative agricultural production technologies and practices that, they feel, are essential to the development of long-term sustainable farming systems.

OBS

We tend to view the words "organic" and "alternative" as more general terms that appear to embrace a number of the more specific words.
