Guidelines for the Documentation and Registration of Traditional Knowledge on Agrobiodiversity Preservation in Drylands, -- Long-term History of Human Adaptations a glance of early stages of our cultural diversity in drylands.

Recent studies indicated that Traditional Knowledge of local communities is central to agrobiodiversity management in dryland regions. Traditional communities have developed time-tested practices for conserving soil and water, including intercropping, crop diversity management, locally adapted agriculture, irrigation, drought-resistant cropping, water harvesting, and diverse planting strategies that promote ecological resilience and food security. These sophisticated systems enable them to adapt to hostile
environments. Most of these agrobiodiversity adaptation practices involve either not adding fertilisers to the soil or fertiliser application using manure.
