The Farming Systems Ecology Group of Wageningen

The Farming Systems Ecology Group focuses on the analysis, evaluation and design of agroecological farming systems. The ultimate goal is high-quality, value-driven agriculture that is based as much as possible on closed cycles and socially-acceptable management in self-sustaining landscapes.

We aim to design multifunctional agricultural systems that can produce sufficient amounts of nutritious food, clean water and fertile soil, whilst contributing to landscape quality and other landscape functions.
