Agroecology is the most important change to the food system to make sure we have enough food in the future, and most people either don’t know about it or prefer monocultures because they are slaves to yield.
As a gardener I think polyculture farming is so exciting too! And pretty! I get such good results from companion planting, but you can’t harvest a three sisters garden with farming equipment so the industrial farmers don’t care.
We already make enough food. Think about how much food you’d save just by telling McDonald’s to fuck off and actually sustainably growing food instead of using X amount of land to make “the perfect French fry”
Or we could stop force farming and overloading the soil with ferts, and go back to crop rotation with letting sections lay fallow.

That’s cool but there’s no way that’s sustainable for a modern economy…
