Agriculture on wet peatlands: the sustainability potential of paludiculture
Agricultural SystemsCONTEXT: Humanity must overcome the polycrisis of biodiversity loss, climate change and pollution. These challenges are especially urgent in peatlands, which develop slowly under waterlogged conditions, function as landscape filters and store large amounts of carbon. Drainage for agriculture, forestry or peat extraction leads to severe socio-ecological
