Biodiversity is one of the foundations of our existence, a major and complex issue – and one that is often overlooked. From FiBL’s point of view, a high biodiversity on the farm is an important pillar of good organic farming. Over the next few months, we will be giving a number of specialists the opportunity to share their views on the importance of biodiversity in agriculture in our “Voices on Biodiversity” series.
We will start with agroecologist Lukas Pfiffner, who has been researching the topic at FiBL Switzerland for over three decades. He is particularly interested in how different farming methods affect biodiversity locally and at the landscape level, with a focus on important organisms such as beneficial insects, pollinators and earthworms.
