Project Bioagriculture and Food Sovereignity
The main objective of this project is that the peasant community, through cooperation and education, will understand that the land is our ally, that if natural resources are scarce, life is also lost, that we are guardians of our food. The exploitation of land, the approach of industrial and intensive agriculture -oriented to export- of speculative trade, which follows the logic of maximum economic benefit and this only brings hunger, poverty and inequality.
A viable model of peasant economic development implies in the first place that this population does not suffer for basic aspects of life such as food, for its high cost of acquisition, mobilization to achieve it, etc. Food sovereignty means giving back to each people or human group the control over the food they produce and consume; this includes access to the necessary technical, political and legal-legal instruments.
