The ecological impact of monoculture farming practices is profound, as it reduces biodiversity and disrupts local ecosystems. By focusing on a single crop species, these practices often lead to soil degradation, increased vulnerability to pests and diseases, and diminished resilience against climate change. Additionally, monocropping can harm beneficial organisms and disrupt nutrient cycling, ultimately affecting overall ecosystem health. Shifting towards more diverse cropping systems can enhance biodiversity, improve soil quality, and promote sustainable agricultural practices.
