Understanding Ecosystems Sustainable farming strengthens healthy ecosystems. Sustainable farmers understand that everything they do has an impact on the larger environment and the creatures that live in it. They avoid practices that disrupt natural systems and have unforeseen, often disastrous, consequences for life on earth. Sustainable farming, ranching, and fishing protect water, earth, and air, as well as the plants, animals, people, insects, and microorganisms that depend on healthy ecosystems for survival. | |
