En productions maraîchères, plusieurs entreprises agricoles [...] canadiennes se sont vues confrontées à des problèmes phytosanitaires importants paraissant reliés à un manque de diversification des systèmes agricoles. C'est ainsi qu’on assiste à la mise en place de programmes de recherche pour développer la production, sur une base commerciale, de nouvelles espèces indigènes et exotiques. La diversification des systèmes de culture peut aussi se faire par la mise en place de bordures, [de] haies et [de] corridors exerçant de différentes façons une influence favorable sur l'écosystème agricole. 2, record 1, French, - diversification%20des%20syst%C3%A8mes%20de%20culture

Le terme «holistic» traduit la recherche d'une approche globale de l'agriculture. En conséquence, l'appellation «agriculture holistique» ne traduit pas la recherche d'un procédé agricole unique mais, au contraire, regroupe l'ensemble des agricultures «alternatives» ayant, outre une approche environnementale, une vision globale de l'exploitation agricole. 2, record 2, French, - agriculture%20holistique
