Field Manual on Agroecology

Agroecology is the course of action that we need to take if we want sustainable food systems and be able to feed the world’s growing population. The first chapter of this manual explains the basic concepts and principles of agroecology and establishes the urgent need to transform agriculture. We cannot continue producing and consuming food the way we are doing now. Agriculture should be part of the solution instead of contributing to the worsening climate crisis and its attendant problems if we want to achieve sustainable food systems and enjoy genuine food security. This manual is an easy-to-follow guide on agroecology that will help stakeholders transform their farms into sustainable and resilient systems.
