Abstract

This memorandum provides a definition of nature-based agriculture and an overview of measures that contribute to it. Nature-based agriculture is a form of sustainable agriculture which makes optimal use of ecological processes and integrates them into farming practice. It is based on a healthy biodiverse soil, produces food within the boundaries set by the living environment and has positive effects on biodiversity and climate.
