Intensive agriculture has increased across Argentina causing a loss of food sovereignty, increased poverty, loss of biodiversity and pollution of water and soil.
Iniciativas de sustentabilidad - Amigos de la Tierra Argentina from Amigos de la Tierra Argentina on Vimeo.
Sustainability Initiatives offer ways to transform the current system of agriculture and food production. It brings together local groups, environmental organisations, small farmers and peasants. One initiative works to strengthen the links between producers and consumers by supporting farmers, producers and distributors in and around Buenos Aires and offering them technical skills through training. Another records and maps initiatives of both sustainable production and marketing and proposed areas of sustainable consumption in the Federal Capital and Greater Buenos Aires. ATA works to build partnerships with rural women’s groups and support women producers. ATA is also working on a bill to include agroecological producers and suppliers for school canteens in the province of Buenos Aires.
