This field guide is co-published by the Project for the ECBFMP, Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Region III, KASAKALIKASAN, and ASEAN IPM Knowledge Network integrates best practices and learning experiences on agroforestry farming systems in the Philippines and the Asia-Pacific Region based on the shared experiences of FFS facilitators, farmer-practitioners and technical experts. Field walks, soil maps, farmer-validated baseline surveys, material-flow charts and the ballot box exercise, with a broad listing of possible questions and answers serve as diagnostic tools.
La FAO promueve la agroecología a través de diez elementos clave, como la diversidad, el intercambio de conocimientos, la eficiencia, la resiliencia y la economía circular, integrados en un enfoque sistémico.
En Colombia, el principal desafío es la escalabilidad, expandiendo las fincas agroecológicas a nivel territorial y fortaleciendo la gobernanza y difusión de buenas prácticas. También es necesario crear un marco institucional claro y fomentar incentivos para avanzar hacia sistemas alimentarios más sostenibles.
Regenerative agriculture, a farming approach that focuses on soil health and ecosystems, has recently received considerable attention, particularly as an essential element of sustainable agriculture in the context of climate change. This paper reviews quantitative evidence of regenerative agriculture’s impact on productivity, resilience, and climate change mitigation—through carbon sequestration in soil. The effectiveness of regenerative agriculture depends on local climate conditions and existing practices.

This Quick Reference Guide complements the “Contract Farming Handbook – A Practical Guide for Linking Small-Scale Producers and Buyers through Business Model Innovation” of the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ). The GIZ methodology provides a hands-on and process-oriented approach for practitioners interested in upgrading existing or developing new contract farming schemes that are inclusive for small-scale producers and their farmer organisations.
