Biodiversity and Sustainable Agriculture

Biodiversity refers to the variety of life in an ecosystem, including different plants, animals, and microorganisms. In agriculture, maintaining biodiversity is crucial because it enhances soil health, pest control, and resilience to climate change. Sustainable agriculture practices, such as crop rotation, organic farming, and agroforestry, promote biodiversity by working with natural processes rather than against them. This not only improves food production and quality but also protects the environment and supports rural communities. By integrating biodiversity into agricultural development, we ensure a healthier ecosystem and a more sustainable future for farming.
