Sustainable Farming and Food Strategy: a strategy produced by Defra to support farming and food industries in working towards practices that will lead to a better environment and healthy and prosperous communities. Engaging with sustainability strategies ensures farmers adopt practices that support long-term productivity and environmental health.
World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE):
sisal: a tropical plant (Agave rigida) which yields a hard fibre used for making binder twine and mats. Cultivating sisal provides farmers with a valuable crop for the production of durable goods, enhancing economic stability and providing employment opportunities.
Cabbage White Butterfly: A common white butterfly (Pieris brassicae) that lays eggs on the leaves of cabbage plants. The caterpillars cause much damage to the plants. Controlling this pest includes using row covers, natural predators, and handpicking caterpillars to minimize crop damage.
Flower: The reproductive part of a seed-bearing plant. Properly managing flower development ensures successful pollination and fruit production.
