Abstract [en]

This article examines how individual consumers can actively participate in agroecosystems management to promote sustainable consumption and quality living. Agroecology, defined by the FAO as an integration of science, movement, and practice, represents an applied science combining ecological processes with agricultural production systems through bottom-up, localized approaches that deliver contextually appropriate solutions. The article outlines four key consumer empowerment strategies: consuming diverse food products to reverse biodiversity loss, investigating food sources and production methods to support resource-efficient farming, encouraging regenerative farming practices that imitate natural ecosystems and use biological recycling, and connecting with local producers to strengthen short food supply chains. Unlike earlier "recycle and reuse" initiatives from the 1990s-2000s, contemporary agroecology management requires multistakeholder involvement where consumers serve as active agents of change through their purchasing decisions and market demand. The article demonstrates that effective agroecosystems management depends on meeting local needs and resources to create equitable, sustainable markets that benefit both producers and consumers.
