Indigenous peoples' agricultural practices

Indigenous peoples' agricultural practices are diverse and deeply rooted in sustainable land management, emphasizing harmony with nature. They often employ techniques like crop rotation, intercropping, and seasonal hunting and gathering to maintain soil fertility and biodiversity. Many use traditional knowledge to adapt to local ecosystems, conserve water, and ensure food security. These practices prioritize ecological balance, respecting natural cycles and resources, which helps preserve ecosystems for future generations while providing for their communities' needs.
