Farms that create habitat key to food security and biodiversity
A few months ago, I have become member of a farming co-op just 8 minutes biking from where I live (in the Netherlands). The co-op aims at sustainable food production with some livestock. Increasing bio-diversity is one of the primary goals. The co-op leases about 30ha hectares which in the past decades were primarily used for producing corn to feed cows. There are about 18 farming co-ops like this in the Netherlands [1]. I very much enjoy helping with the weeding.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.herenboeren.nl&#x2F;wp-content&#x2F;uploads&#x2F;2017&#x2F;11&#x2F;Herenboeren-Engels.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.herenboeren.nl&#x2F;wp-content&#x2F;uploads&#x2F;2017&#x2F;11&#x2F;Herenb...</a>
