agree  Elizabeth Lyons: This sounds good to me, (although I suppose one could make the case for "agro-ecologic" niches too).

Explanation:
Also "suited to." We were taught in the international organizations to avoid "adapted" in this kind of text.

You could also say "particular ... niches."
"Agro-ecological" is what's used in the international organizations. Note the first reference from FAO. At 258,000 references, "agro-ecological" is far and away the more accepted term (22,000 references for "agricultural and ecological"). It's definitely the jargon that's used.
