Opinions and experiences with Sustainable Intensification.

The Nature Conservancy is a global conservation organization which has built its agriculture strategy around the concept of sustainable intensification.

This talk will give the Conservancy's perspective on where and how to move towards more sustainable intensification, in the US and beyond.
