Summary in the original language of the document

Agroecological farmers often reinvest organic matter and labour to maintain sustainability. However, most studies overlook these investments. By applying an energy-flow accounting to farms in Southern Brazil we highlight the need for incorporating these investments to accurately assess agroecology.
