Information on different kinds of agriculture and its environmental impacts..?

Question

Hey! Does anyone know some websites where you can find information on different kinds of agriculture, farming etc and how they affect the environment?

It can be about anything, from herding sheep in Scotland to the cattle of some African tribes to the Sami people and their reindeer... as long as it says something about how it affects the environment too.

I'd be really thankful for some help on this! :)
