    Agroecology is a cross-sectoral and integrated approach. It attempts to balance the need to address ecological conservation and socio-economic improvement. The approach involves mimicking the self-regulation of nature and understanding traditional systems that can work to maintain ecosystem functioning. There exist several parallels between EbA and Agroecology and synergies need to be made. Parallels include the use of community and participatory approaches and nature-based solutions. Entry points can be different, where EbA focus adaptation and agroecology on transformation of food systems. Agroecology in practice: Malawi – legume diversification for soil fertility. Large-scale transdisciplinary project that worked through a variety of organizations. Classical agro ecological practices were implemented and the methodology took into consideration issues of equity, community seed banks, and implemented participatory action research and horizontal learning. The project aimed to increase the resilience of the global agroecosystem, spread out the harvest period, and to introduce drought tolerant crops. Food and nutrition security was improved, including the diversification of diets and longer harvest periods.

    An FAO Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission (CFSAM) visited all main food producing areas in Timor-Leste from 27 April to 9 May 2021 to estimate the 2021 crop production and the import requirements during the 2021/22 marketing year (April/March). The Mission’s aim was to provide an accurate picture of severity and extent of the shocks that affected the agriculture sector in 2021 and identify the country’s main agricultural support needs until the next harvest. In particular, as officially requested by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MAF), the CFSAM assessed the impact of the tropical storm and floods as well as FAW and ASF outbreaks on the agriculture sector.
