"Sustainable intensification" refers to a way of increasing food production in an environmentally friendly manner. It involves using methods that maximize crop yields while minimizing negative impacts on the environment, such as reducing the use of pesticides and fertilizers, conserving water, and promoting biodiversity. The goal is to produce more food to feed our growing population, but in a way that is sustainable, meaning it can continue for a long time without causing harm to nature or depleting resources.
