A review of social and economic performance of agroecology
The present study aims to build a framework and provide a quantitative overview of the effects of adopting selected agroecological practices at the farm level. A literature review has been conducted to identify scientific work addressing agroecology's contribution to a set of socio-economic indicators, which affect human, financial, and social assets. Data extracted from 17 peer-reviewed papers were analyzed, finding preliminary evidence of agroecology's positive contribution to improving financial capital.
