An agroecological approach to preserve biodiversity in agricultural landscapes should draw on both scientific and local traditional knowledge. This article focuses on changes in the hay management regime in the extensive wetlands of Biebrza National Park in Poland.

Agroecology in Turkey is more than a set of farming techniques; it is a battleground of ideas. Competing narratives are shaping who controls food systems, how communities thrive, and what the countryside will look like tomorrow.

In this episode of the Ecologia Podcast, Émile Frison and Lena Luig explore in depth the conditions and levers of an agroecological transition capable of driving lasting change. Hosted by Arafet Ben Marzo.

Over-reliance on chemical inputs has left Cambodia’s agriculture vulnerable to environmental and economic pressures. The company Evola Cambodia illustrates how black soldier fly (BSF) technology can convert organic waste into sustainable fertilizer and feed.
