A switch to ecological farming will benefit health and environment
转换为生态农业将益于健康和环境
A new approach to farming is needed to safeguard human health and avoid rising air and water pollution, high greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss, a group of 20 leading agronomists, health, nutrition and social scientists has concluded.
农学家、健康专家、营养师、社会科学家等20个研究小组已经得出结论 ，新型农业需保障人类健康和避免空气水污染蔓延，避免高温室气体排放和生物多样性丧失。
Rather than the giant feedlots used to rear animals or the uniform crop monocultures that now dominate farming worldwide, the solution is to diversify agriculture and re-orient it around ecological practices, says the report (pdf) by the International panel of experts on sustainable food systems (IPES-Food).
可持续发展食品系统的国际专家小组 (IPES-Food)报道称，相较于目前饲养动物的大型饲养场和单一的农作物种植为全国农业的主导，解决办法是多样化农业和围绕生态重新定向农作物种植。
The benefits of a switch to a more ecologically oriented farming system would be seen in human and animal health, and improvements in soil and water quality, the report says.
该报道指出，从生态学的观点来看，更具导向性的农业系统将会给人类和动物健康、土壤和水质改良带来更大的利益。
The new group, which is co-chaired by Olivier De Schutter, former UN special rapporteur on food, and includes winners of the World Food prize and the heads of bio-science research groups, accepts that industrial agriculture and the global food system that has grown around it supplies large volumes of food to global markets.
以奥利维尔·德舒特为联合组长的新团队，他是前任联合国关于食物的专业记录员、世界食品获奖者、生物科学研究小组带头人，接受了工业化农业，并通过全球食品系统围绕产业化为全球市场提供大量食品。
But it argues that food supplies would not be greatly affected by a change to a more diverse farming system.
然而对于转换为更具多样化的农业系统不会很大程度上影响食品供给，这点仍有争议。
The group's members, drawn from rich and poor countries with no affiliations to industry, say that industrial agriculture's dependence on chemical fertilisers, pesticides and antibiotics to manage animals and agro-ecosystems, has led to ecological, social and human health crises.
来自富裕国家和贫穷国家的团队成员与工业没有隶属关系，他们说，依赖化肥、农药、管理动物和农业生态所需抗生素的工业化农业已导致生态、社会和人类健康的危机。
"Today's food and farming systems led systematically to negative outcomes and vulnerabilities. Many of these problems can be linked specifically to the industrial-scale feedlots and uniform crop monocultures that dominate agricultural landscapes, and rely on chemical fertilisers and pesticides as a means of managing agro-ecosystems," the group says.
该团队说"今天食品和农业系统出现很多负面影响和漏洞，成规模的工业化饲养场和统一的单一农作物为主导的农业场景，特别是依靠化肥和农药作为管理农业生态系统的手段，导致了这些负面影响和漏洞。"
