Agricultural biodiversity insures against uncertain futures

In the Andean highlands, farming communities continue to cultivate seeds and tubers stewarded by their ancestors over centuries—genetic resources that are rightfully theirs. Yet the growing risk of digital biopiracy threatens to erode their Farmers’ Rights and the sovereignty embedded in these living legacies.

Mark #WorldFoodDay and celebrate the majority world's food providers who, while respecting #PachaMama and #Nyeleni, cooperate to provide 80% of world's peoples with food through #biodiverse #agroecological systems and #FoodSovereignty

The Ceylan Times published an excellent piece in last Sunday's edition, explaining what the 3rd Nyéléni Global Forum is and why agroecology is the only way forward to achieve food sovereignty.

People working in food systems - those in fields, in factories and in hospitality need to have their labour fairly compensated.

That's the key to transforming food systems for the better says @deewoods.bsky.social ‪from @landworkersuk.bsky.social ‪ and @grancomkitchen.bsky.social

🌸 Happy #BiodiversityDay!

@ipbes.net defines living in harmony with nature as living peacefully alongside all organisms, recognizing our interdependence while ensuring sustainability. 💫🧪

Together, let's conserve, restore & sustainably use life on Earth! 🌍
An illustration in warm coral and brown tones showing a peaceful landscape. The scene depicts silhouettes of people and animals coexisting in a natural setting with trees, shrubs, and wildflowers. In the background, tall trees create a canopy while silhouettes show individuals with horses. In the foreground, flowers dot the gentle slopes, and a deer moves through the vegetation. The image includes text reading "LIVING IN HARMONY WITH NATURE" with a subtitle "Embrace interdependence for a peaceful coexistence with all living beings." The IPBES logo appears in the top right corner. The artwork uses a minimalist style with layered shapes to create depth and atmosphere.

Today's #BiodiversityDay, a time to celebrate flowers blooming, birds singing, bees buzzing 🐝🐦🌼

But here’s the buzzkill: toxic pesticides are wiping out pollinators and destroying nature.

The good news? We can still phase them out. More in our factsheet 👉

Discover the versatile Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus), a North American native cultivated by Indigenous peoples. For cultivation, plant tubers in a sunny location during spring. These nutty tubers can be roasted, used in soups, or eaten raw. #JerusalemArtichoke #SustainableGardening

#WorldBeeDay 🐝
ec.europa.eu European Commission @ec.europa.eu · May 20
Today, over 20,000 bee species are buzzing for #WorldBeeDay 🐝

Bees & other pollinators keep 80% of crop and wild flowering plants alive.

Yet, 1 in 10 bee, hoverfly, and butterfly species are now at risk of extinction in the EU.
Split-image with the text “TO BEE or NOT TO BEE.” The left side shows a vibrant wildflower meadow with a bee on a daisy, symbolising biodiversity and a healthy ecosystem. The right side shows a dry, barren landscape with dead trees and no visible wildlife, representing environmental degradation. An EU flag appears in the bottom right corner.

Recognising all pollinators on #WorldBeeDay, this bumblebee, on Russian Comfrey flowers in our allotment garden, is one of 270 species of bees in the UK. It could soon be joined by a few honeybees from our hives, if #coexistence -blind RugBee Borough Council lets us!

Bees are sounding the alarm.🐝

Their health is tied to the way we grow our food and care for nature. @fao.org's Yurdi Yasmi explains what the decline of bees reveals about biodiversity loss — and what we can do to change course.
