Page "Agroecology" Paragraph 13

Rather than viewing agroecology as a subset of agriculture, Wojtkowski takes a more encompassing perspective.

In this, natural ecology and agroecology are the major headings under ecology.

Natural ecology is the study of organisms as they interact with and within natural environments.

Correspondingly, agroecology is the basis for the land-use sciences.

Here humans are the primary governing force for organisms within planned and managed, mostly terrestrial, environments.
