Content: full-text

Abstract: Loss of biodiversity has direct and indirect impact on human health. Monocultural agriculture production and loss of crop diversity could lead to food shortages. Deforestation and habit incursion and destruction has led to loss of natural resources for medicinal products and to the spread of infectious diseases. Loss of biodiversity destroys the environmental support system on which human communities depend.
