Communities and Their Agrobiodiversity

open access: yesOutlook on Agriculture, 2009
Poor scientific understanding of traditional farming systems and related socioeconomic issues seriously impede the identification of solutions for sustainable agricultural development in the Himalayan region. Traditional agrobiodiversity management plays a key role in coping with the uncertainties prevailing in the Himalaya. There is an urgent need to

Managing increasing environmental risks through agrobiodiversity and agrienvironmental policies

open access: yesAgricultural Economics (United Kingdom), 2010
Agrobiodiversity can provide natural insurance to risk-averse farmers by reducing the variance of crop yield, and to society at large by reducing the uncertainty in the provision of public-good ecosystem services, for example, CO 2 storage.

Agrobiodiversity in an Oasis Archipelago

Journal of Ethnobiology, 2013
Oases on Mexico’s Baja California peninsula harbor farms and gardens which largely feature crops first introduced by Jesuit missionaries (1697–1768). These spring-fed agricultural landscapes are currently managed as diverse agroecosystems with original heritage food crop species as well as newer crop and livestock introductions.

It is further expanded in some contexts to include all the organisms present in an agricultural landscape.
