8 Why is family farming important? Family farming has an important socio-economic, environmental and cultural role. Family and small-scale farming are inextricably linked to world food security. Family farming preserves traditional food products, while contributing to a balanced diet and safeguarding the world’s agro- biodiversity and the sustainable use of natural resources. Family farming represents an opportunity to boost local economies, especially when combined with specific policies aimed at social protection and well-being of communities. 8
