As the need for global climate change action and ecosystem restoration accelerates, rethinking mainstream agricultural practices is crucial. By enrichening biodiversity in the foods we eat and the farming landscapes we create, we can make key contributions to achieving global goals.
An untapped resource for reaching global goals
“From soil to microorganisms, bugs, plant varieties, pollinators and plenty more, agrobiodiversity is the complexity of life in agricultural landscapes. Why is it important? Agrobiodiversity is clearly connected with healthy ecosystems and communities. Today, our world faces complex challenges, and these require complex solutions, one of which is agrobiodiversity,” says Francesca Grazioli, an expert on biodiversity in food and agriculture and Researcher at the Alliance.
