Plantas alimentícias não convencionais

Plantas alimentícias não convencionais (PANC) (lit. 'non-conventional food plants'), is an academic and popular education agroforestry botany movement, specially in Brazil and Latin America, of open research and social marketing for uncommon edible plants, mainly those that self-breed without harvesting efforts in empty lots and roads that have nutritional properties.

Due to the advances in modern agriculture and changes in cuisine, several plants that were historically cultivated are no longer utilized, and may be pejoratively referred to as weeds.

These, usually native species, are often resistant to pests, need little wild gardening care, and can be grown in unconventional places, such as small closed rooms, roadsides, or vacant lots with very few resources.
