Farmers’ Seeds: The Key to Agroecology
Our food systems are broken — and farmers’ seeds and agroecology are the only real sustainable fix to the problems. Farmers’ seeds offer us locally produced food and fight hunger while saving the environment through climate change adaptation and protecting our biodiversity. Farmers’ seeds are the key to transforming our food systems towards agroecology. With farmers’ seeds, anything is possible.
