I am looking for a piece that makes a clear comparison between
ecological farming systems. These are the systems I am aware of
so far:

organic farming (IFOAM, Rodale, etc.)
biodynamic farming (Steiner, Pfeiffer, et. al.)
biointensive farming (John Jeavons, Ecology Action, etc.)
natural farming (Fukuoka)
agroecology (Altierri et al)
permaculture (Mollison)
ecological synergy (Kuntz)
integrated biological systems (?)

Is there a piece or collection somewhere I can download which can
give me a good summary of the similarities and differences among
the systems above, as well as other systematic farming approaches
that claim to be ecological?

Thanks to all,

Roberto Verzola
