Question

agrobiodiversity adapted from united states botanic garden
what is agrobiodiversity?
agrobiodiversity refers to agriculture and biodiversity. agrobiodiversity includes all the different kinds of plants and animals people raise for food. it also includes living things in the soil that break down and recycle soil nutrients, as well as insects and other insects that pollinate crops.
how people create agrobiodiversity
for at least 10,000 years, people have created countless varieties of crops and livestock breeds. each growing season, farmers saved seeds or took cuttings from the plants that grew well in local soil and weather conditions, or from plants that were able to resist diseases and insect pests. over time, they developed varieties that produced food better suited to local environmental conditions. farmers also alter soils and other parts of the landscape, and this in turn affects biodiversity. the knowledge traditional farmers have about crop varieties is astonishing. in india, for example, farmers can harvest, and cook over 100 varieties of rice!
the spread of agrobiodiversity
as people first moved to different parts of the world, they took their seeds and farm animals with them. they developed new varieties of crops and livestock that suited the new growing conditions. as people selected crop and livestock for different traits, they created new varieties. consider wild cabbage for example, which is the ancestor of many different food plants. people bred wild cabbage for different plant parts, such as brussels sprouts, which come from lateral buds on wild cabbage, or collards, from wild cabbage leaves; cauliflower, which comes from the flower cluster of wild cabbage, as well as many others, including broccoli and kohlrabi, which come from wild cabbage.
together with the environment, determine the traits of all living things. add human ingenuity and selection, and you get the diversity of vegetables, fruits, grains, and meats we eat today!
