Farming heritage encompasses the traditions, practices, skills, and knowledge passed down through generations that have shaped agricultural communities. It includes techniques for growing crops and raising animals, along with cultural rituals, tools, architecture, and stories that reflect a region’s agricultural history. Preserving farming heritage helps us appreciate how societies historically interacted with the land, maintained biodiversity, and adapted to environmental changes. It fosters a sense of identity and continuity, ensuring that valuable agricultural knowledge and cultural practices are conserved for future generations to understand and build upon.
