What does a NASA lunar flyby have in common with #LandscapeAgronomy fieldwork? More than you'd think. New post exploring multi-scale observation, croisement des regards, and why human presence in science still matters. #Artemis2 #FieldScience daviderizzophd.wordpress.com/2026/04/09/a...

🧵/5 Implications 🤝Interdisciplinary dialogue is crucial to bridge the gap 🧐 Researchers must critically reflect on their assumptions to avoid polarizing the sustainability debate 🌟Transparency about limitations and priorities can enrich scientific and societal discussions

Davide Rizzo @daviderizzo.bsky.social · 08/01/2025
🧵/4 Epistemological Divide 🤲Agroecology values relational knowledge—systems as more than the sum of their parts 🔍Sustainable Intensification relies on reductionist methods—breaking systems into optimizable components. 🧠 This divide reflects deeper philosophical differences on "valid knowledge"

🧵/2 Agroecology 🌿 Rooted in holistic systems thinking, it views farms as complex adaptive systems 🌳It prioritizes diversity (e.g., crop rotation, agroforestry) and local knowledge over industrial inputs 🌍 However it sidesteps scaling up to meet global food demands.
