sustainable agriculture
Farming is an indispensable part of the rural economy. To secure the livelihoods of rural populations, generate decent income and provide a basis for inclusive growth and poverty reduction, we will need to support farming systems that are viable in the long term – particularly for smallholder farms.
Promoting sustainable agriculture practices, such as Regenerative Agriculture can enhance food security, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and promote biodiversity
Sustainable agriculture emphasizes planting diverse crops, including heirloom plants, which are often suited to a region’s particular climate. Rather than relying on a single crop in industrial monoculture, sustainable agriculture advocates the use of polyculture, in which multiple crops are grown together Preserving and restoring natural ecosystems, such as forests and wetlands, can enhance climate resilience, promote biodiversity, and support sustainable livelihoods
