12,000 agricultores orgánicos del Perú luchan por sobrevivir y promueven su propia forma de desarrollar las fuentes de alimentos.
En su
agenda de la conferencia del martes, la Asociación Nacional de Productores
Ecológicos subraya la demanda al gobierno Peruano por políticas que prioricen
la seguridad alimentaria.
La
asociación agrupa a 172 organizaciones con más de 12.000 pequeños productores y
promueve un modelo agrícola alternativo que incluye técnicas libres de
pesticidas, armoniosas con el ambiente e independientes de insumos externos. La
organización cree que esos métodos conducirán a la preservación de los recursos
naturales del Perú y a una vida más saludable para los ciudadanos.
La Vice
Presidente de la organización, Naida Quispe Farfán, declaró que ello conducirá
a “ser capaces de decidir los productos
que tenemos, lo que podemos producir, cuánto va para qué usos, y cuánto va a un
sitio en particular. Algunos van a exportación y el resto al consumo nacional,
por lo que aprenderemos a priorizar nosotros mismos “.
La
conferencia también habló de tomar en cuenta a los hijos de los productores
expandiendo programas que los involucren.

PERU'S ORGANIC WORKERS CALL FOR FOOD
SOVEREIGNTY (teleSur, Jun. 17, 2015, cited

12,000
Peruvian organic farmers are struggling to survive and promote their way of
developing sources of food.
Demands
for Peruvian government policy that prioritizes food security and sovereignty
were high on the agenda Tuesday at the National Association of Ecological
Producers conference.
The
National Association of Ecological Producers groups 172 local organizations and
more than 12,000 small farmers. It promotes an alternative agricultural model
that includes techniques free of pesticides, harmonious with the environment
and independent of foreign inputs. The organisation believes that such methods
will lead to the preservation of the Peruvian natural resources and to a
healthy life for citizens.
Vice
President of the organization Naida Quispe Farfán stated that it means,
“to be able to decide out of the products we have what can we produce, what
amount goes for certain use, and how much goes to a particular place. Some goes
on exports, the rest on national consumption. Therefore, we learn to prioritize
for ourselves.
The
conference also touched on reaching out to the children of farmers by expanding
programs to get them involved.
