flag Diversified farming boosts food security, biodiversity, and farmer income without cutting yields, a global study finds.

flag A global study published in Science finds that diversified farming—using practices like crop rotation, livestock integration, and agroforestry—boosts food security, biodiversity, and farmer well-being without reducing yields, even at large scales. flag Led by researchers including Washington State University’s David Crowder and Jeb Owen, the analysis of 28 studies across five continents shows these methods improve pest control, soil health, and income, especially for small farms in regions like Malawi. flag Results were consistent from Europe to Southeast Asia, demonstrating that combining multiple diversification strategies creates more resilient, sustainable food systems.
