text: * Cultivating peatland products sustainably can incentivise the rewetting of drained peatlands, while maintaining similar land use in previously drained agricultural areas
  * Raw materials can be grown on peatlands without competing with food production for land in other areas.
  * The growing of crops extracts phosphate from the land, which is important in wetlands; it also helps to extract other nutrients from water, making it suitable for post-water treatment purposes
  * In many tropical countries, cultivating semi-wild native crops in peat swamp forests is a traditional livelihood which can be sustainable.
  * Restored reed beds can obstruct nitrogen and phosphorus run-off from agriculture higher up in the river system and so protect lower waters.
  * Paludiculture areas can act as habitat corridors and ecological buffer zones between traditional agriculture and intact peatlands
