🤔Did you know that #pollination is crucial for maintaining and promoting #biodiversity? Out of nearly 1,400 crop plants grown worldwide, nearly 80% require pollination❗ That's why pollinators, like bees🐝, are an important part of improving food security worldwide. However, many farmers are unaware of the important role pollinators can hold. Our teams work with farmers to teach them new pollinator-friendly farming techniques so they can expand their gardens, increase their harvests, and protect biodiversity! 🌍🌱 Read more👇👇 https://lnkd.in/emQfxu-9 #WorldBeeDay #ClimateCrisis #ClimateProtection

There are 4 Pillars of Natural Farming including indigenous seeds, indigenous cow breeds, mulching and intercropping. These pillars not only support crop adaptation to local conditions but also foster bio diversity. These endeavours aim to benefit small-scale farmers economically while contributing to ecological enhancement. . . . . . #artofliving #gurudevsrisriravishankar #artoflivingsocialprojects #gurudev #naturalfarming #sustainablefarming #organicfarming #biodiversity #farmerempowerment #indigenousseeds #indigenouscowbreeds #smallscalefarmers

Do you know the difference between monoculture and polyculture in farming? With monoculture, just one crop is grown, whereas in polyculture, many different crops are grown alongside each other. Polyculture promotes biodiversity by encouraging a symbiotic relationship between plants, soil microorganisms, insects, and animals. Polyculture is a technique that Indigenous people have long practiced. Learn how we incentivize this technique and Indigenous farmers in our Building Soil, Building Equity program: https://lnkd.in/dqueZwqr #indigenousfarming #regenerativefarming #polyculture

🍃 Go beyond traditional farming practices with foliar feeding! By directly applying nutrient-rich solutions to plant leaves, you bypass potential soil limitations and support crop vitality. Remember to integrate foliar feeding judiciously within a broader regenerative framework for maximum impact on soil health and biodiversity.💧 #SustainableFarming #SoilRegeneration
