Agroecology: Farming with Nature to Create Sustainable Food Systems
56 56 people viewed this event.
Agroecology is a holistic approach to farming that applies ecological concepts to agricultural systems, aiming to create sustainable food systems by working with nature rather than against it. Nature has many natural checks and balances that can be harnessed and used on a farm to reduce inputs and increase productivity. While each agricultural operation has its own opportunities and challenges, there are key principles to help you determine the best agroecological practices for your farm or ranch. Join us as we share the successes and challenges that Greenacres Foundation has had encouraging beneficial ecology and how that has impacted our ability to participate in sustainable agriculture.
