Agriculture faces severe challenges such as increasing food demands, climate change, soil degradation, resource scarcity and biodiversity loss. At the same time, agriculture experiences a crisis of social acceptance due to its social and environmental impacts and its consequences for human and animal health. The time thus seems ripe for new ways of doing agriculture that promote biodiversity and ecosystem functions, without exporting the ecological and social footprint.
