Landbouw van de toekomst

How do we achieve an agriculture that provides farmers with a secure livelihood in an attractive and healthy landscape with high cultural-historical values and restored biodiversity The Board of Government Advisers, together with farmers, scientists and designers, is investigating such 'landscape-inclusive' agriculture in three pilots. Landscape-inclusive encompasses more than just nature. In addition to biodiversity, it also concerns the cultural-historical and recreational value of the landscape and sustainable forms of agriculture. The questions on the table are: what could the landscape look like in ten to thirty years' time and how can farmers earn a good living in it? Design research is being used to find an answer to these questions.
