Agroecology

• A technique for [[sustainable agriculture]]
• A [[convivial tool]] that can be used, shared and improved upon by anyone

[[I like agroecology]].

Techniques for stable, eco-responsible agriculture such as permaculture and agroecology are convivial tools because anyone can use and share them, and contribute to their improvement.

– [[Free, Fair and Alive]]

“the application of ecology to the design and management of sustainable agroecosystems”

“a whole-systems approach to agriculture and food systems development based on traditional knowledge, alternative agriculture, and local food system experiences”

“linking ecology, culture, economics, and society to sustain agricultural production, healthy environments, and viable food and farming communities”

Agroecology has also been described as the “science of [[sustainable agriculture]]”, and seeks to determine best method approaches for sustainable options."
