Agroecology is the application of ecological concepts, the study of relationships between plants, animals, people, and their environment - and the balance between these relationships, and principals in farming.[1]
In the context of Food Sovereignty and localization, utilizing agroecology is key to transitioning away from and repairing the destructive effects[2] of industrial agriculture.[3]

Mycorrhizal symbioses is a powerful tool to be employed in agroecological settings. Mycelium is highly efficient in facilitating plan nutrient uptake, water distribution and overall crop production.[4][5]
