Black Agriculture
Black Agriculture refers to the farming practices and contributions of Black individuals and communities, particularly in the United States. Historically, Black farmers have played a significant role in agriculture, despite facing systemic challenges such as discrimination, land loss, and limited access to resources.
Today, Black Agriculture encompasses a range of activities, including sustainable farming, community gardening, and the promotion of food sovereignty. Organizations like the Black Farmers Association work to support Black farmers and advocate for equitable policies, while initiatives focus on preserving traditional farming techniques and promoting local food systems.
