NOT Agroecology

Agroecology is NOT…

• resource-extracting mechanization of cropping systems.
• exclusively input and technology substitution.
• exclusively business-first development.
• unrestrained globalization of food systems.

Enough Food

• Bad
  • How do we produce enough food?
• Better
  • How do we produce more with less?
  • How do we produce more nutritious food?
  • How do we produce more available food?

Better Technology

• Let’s go down the GMO rabbit hole for a minute.
• What are genetically modified organisms?
• What are the different ways you can genetically modify a crop plant?
• Are GMOs agroecology?

Do Use the Term
