How agro-ecology battles nutritional deficiencies and food insecurity

In a recent Daily Monitor article titled "How agroecology battles nutritional deficiencies and food insecurity," the merits of agroecology over conventional farming were brought to the fore. Through testimonials from Ugandan agriculturalists, the piece underscores the adverse effects of inorganic farming, such as soil degradation and excessive fertilizer use, while juxtaposing them against the sustainable benefits of agroecology practices like agroforestry and intercropping. The article further accentuates the hazards of pesticides on both crops and water sources and the consequential health risks to consumers. With an emphasis on sustainability, the discussion gravitates toward the importance of agroecology in ensuring food security, preserving soil health, and promoting environmentally-friendly farming in Uganda.
