Weaver Ant: a natural ecological practice to protect cashew nut plantations

𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥? Weaver ants are considered farmers’ friends as they protect crops like cashews from pests. Introducing weaver ants is just one of many techniques used in Agroecological Crop Protection (ACP), which combines the principles of agroecology, Integrated Pest Management (IPM), Organic Agriculture, and regenerative agriculture. This natural solution reduces crop damages, improves yields and nut quality, ends the need to spray chemical pesticides, reduces production costs and increase's farmers profit margins. Moreover, it maintains the health of farmers and the environment while also improve the resilience of farming systems. Watch this video to learn about weaver ant management techniques and the successful experiences of organic cashew farmers in Preah Vihear province.

Strengthening agroecology for a fundamental transformation of agri-food systems

The negative effects of industrial agriculture have long been clear, and agroecology offers a multitude of solutions for the fundamental transformation of the agri-food system. Several German and international important actors of the agroecology debate are supporting this position paper in which solutions are presented and are calling on the German government to undertake actions in support of agroecology.

 Mainstreaming Agroecology Implications for Global Food and Farming Systems

In 2010, the Centre for Agroecology and Food Security (CAFS) was established to undertake applied research and education on agroecology as the underlying paradigm of sustainable agriculture. This approach is required not only to ensure that all the peoples of the world are fed, but also for humanity to avoid destroying the life support system and renewable resources upon which it depends. Whilst the term ‘agroecology’ has been increasingly used in international circles over the past two decades, it is less used and not well-understood in the UK, even within the alternative agricultural movements. Therefore this discussion paper was written to inform not only the CAFS multidisciplinary team, but also the very broad audience of people and organisations working for change in the farming production, research and policy arenas.

Training Handbook: The New EU Organic Regulation (2018/848) for Producer Groups

This training handbook was developed for the certified organic Sidama Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union, Ethiopia to understand and apply the requirements of the new EU Organic Regulation. It has been developed as a generic handbook for organic producer groups worldwide, with a focus on perennial crops like coffee in Africa. The training handbook has been developed based on a careful analysis of regulatory texts by experts and an intense exchange with various stakeholders. It represents FiBL’s status of understanding of the new EU regulatory requirements as per Dec 2023. This handbook aims to summarise and explain the new requirements to groups for training purposes. It is neither a certification standard nor an official EU Guideline. The Training Handbook on the New EU Organic Regulation (2018/848) for Producer Groups consists of three parts: • Part 1: Introduction and Basic Requirements • Part 2: Organic Production Rules • Part 3: Internal Control System (ICS)

Sun-Powered Agroecology: The Solar Dome

This video highlights the Solar Dryer Dome, a sustainable, solar-powered innovation designed to help farmers reduce post-harvest losses, preserve crops, and increase income. The main goal of this video is to showcase how this simple yet effective technology improves food security, minimizes waste, and enhances market opportunities for small-scale farmers. Implemented by the Community Development and Environment Association (CDEA) and supported by the ALiSEA Small Grant Facility 2022, this initiative aligns with agroecology principles, promoting sustainability, climate resilience, and efficient resource use. Through real farmer experiences, we explore how this innovation is transforming agriculture in Laos.

Trồng xen canh các loại cây thuốc và cây ăn được bản địa bởi người dân tộc H're và xã Po E, tỉnh Kon Tum, Việt Nam

Video này, do SPERI sản xuất, giới thiệu những nỗ lực của người dân tộc H're và xã Po E, tỉnh Kon Tum, Việt Nam, trong quá trình chuyển đổi sang nông nghiệp sinh thái. Được hỗ trợ bởi một khoản tài trợ nhỏ từ ALiSEA, sáng kiến này tích hợp các loại cây thuốc và cây gia vị bản địa với việc trồng trọt đa dạng để thúc đẩy nông nghiệp bền vững, không sử dụng thuốc trừ cỏ. Thông qua các thí nghiệm do nông dân dẫn dắt, kiến thức truyền thống và học tập dựa trên cộng đồng, dự án thúc đẩy đa dạng sinh học, củng cố sinh kế địa phương và xây dựng khả năng chống chịu trong hệ thống nông nghiệp vùng cao.
