This page names the broader system of practice that a specific agricultural technique belongs to. Wikipedia notes that sustainable agriculture "consists of environment friendly methods of farming that allow the production of crops or livestock without causing damage to human or natural systems," a wider system that many specific practices sit inside. Browsing this way moves between a practice and the wider system that contains it.
