Biodiverse Farming systems have many elements and many different crops are produced. Polyculture systems create opportunities for additional farm enterprises.
Emitters can support farmers transition into more community based farm models
As new elements are added to the system, new farm enterprises can follow naturally. As agroecology develops new ecological niches are created, and these can suit the farming of new supplementary crops and animals.
Enterprise stacking is a model where multiple different farm businesses operate simultaneously on the same land, as part of a polyculture farming system.
Polyculture systems create opportunities for additional farm enterprises
These farm enterprises can create local employment and aid with farm succession planning.
Working together on the same land within the same agroecology can strengthen community bonds and create new ones, as new people are brought onto the farm.
Over the long-term human farming communities working in this way can become embedded within the farm ecology.
By sequestering carbon with Biodiverse Farming, emitters can support farmers transition into more community based farm models, while working to mitigate climate change.
Additional farm enterprises can create local employment and aid with farm succession planning.
