Sustainable agriculture benefits
As farmers incorporate these practices into their work, many benefits emerge: Less pollution. Healthier, more fertile soil that is less vulnerable to drought and flooding. A lighter impact on surrounding ecosystems, resulting in greater biodiversity. Reduced global warming impact. Less antibiotic and pesticide resistance.
This checklist of benefits adds up to more than the sum of its parts. The ultimate benefit of adopting sustainable agriculture is that in doing so, we make it more likely that our farms will remain healthy and productive for future generations.
