Abstract

The article discusses the five principles of circular agriculture, emphasizing the importance of reducing resource input, closing nutrient loops, repurposing waste, regenerating natural ecosystems, and fostering collaboration across the supply chain. Circular agriculture aims to create a sustainable farming system that minimizes waste, maximizes resource efficiency, and promotes a regenerative cycle of production. By adopting these principles, agribusinesses can move towards sustainable food production and contribute to environmental conservation. The concept of circular agriculture originated in Europe and offers valuable insights for local producers seeking to enhance their farming practices. [Extracted from the article]
