Agroecology Case Studies from Around the World
PAN International’s Agroecology Workgroup recently published a series of case studies spotlighting agroecology in action around the world. Agroecology provides a robust set of solutions to the ecological, environmental, social, and economic pressures we face when it comes to growing food.
These case studies illustrate the validity of agroecology as a climate-resilient solution. Agrichemical corporations spend millions of dollars trying to convince us that the Indigenous wisdom that lays the foundation for the principles of agroecology is unrealistic for modern agriculture. But the truth is, farmers around the world are already using these methods to successfully transition away from the toxic pesticides and fertilizers that pollute soil and water and endanger farmworkers and communities.
