Agriculture to feed | Cantos do Sabiá

João Lucas França – Broadcaster and communicator for the Sabiá Center.

Farming to feed. Family farming is a way of living in the countryside that mixes rural daily life with farming. Anyone who lives in the countryside knows: it’s a life of cultivation.

That’s why family farming – based on agroecology – values farmers and seeks to ensure that life and production have quality.

But agroecology proposes more: respect is needed. Respect for the rural worker, respect for the quality of the food, but also for the quality of life of those who produce agriculture that feeds.

July 25th is International Family Farming Day. Today, we celebrate an agriculture that feeds! E who talks to us on this program is Paulo Petersen – agronomist, Master in Agroecology and Rural Development and PhD in Environmental Studies. Paulo is a member of the National Articulation of Agroecology (ANA), the Brazilian Association of Agroecology (ABA) and the NGO AS-PTA – Family Farming and Agroecology.

Cantos do Sabiá is the Sabiá Center Podcast! Every week we discuss agroecology, sustainability and politics in the countryside and the city! The podcast goes live every Monday, with the complete interview edition that originally made up the Center’s radio program. https://spoti.fi/31VtUj5
