Agroecology is a promising approach that is transforming agrifood systems across the Asia-Pacific Region. Indeed, there is increasing evidence of positive results with the transition to agroecology, and these include stable yields, crop resilience, higher incomes for farmers, fishers and producers, improved nutrition and food security and enhanced biodiversity (Global Alliance for the Future of Food 2023). Several events and workshops across the region over the last year (including TARASA23), have emphasised the need for agroecological approaches. However, to promote agroecology at scale, the domain needs more professionals who can understand, appreciate, adapt, and promote agroecological principles to suit varied agroecological settings, and to support farmers in designing and managing sustainable and resilient farming systems.
