Is agroecology an alternative? | Real Food

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

On today’s show, we’re talking about Agroecology Month! The month in which we celebrate Agroecology Day. With that in mind, I ask you: Is agroecology an alternative? Alternative… to what?

We live in a completely different world from years ago. Cities are hotter, rain no longer comes at the right time, heat waves can kill, sea levels are rising and new diseases are emerging… A new normal of chaos.

So it ‘s over? There’s nothing left to do, and now humanity is just waiting for the end? Calm down, because there are still ways out! But you have to row against the floods to find these solutions.

That’s why, in this month of Agroecology – the month in which we celebrate Agroecology Day – we ask you: Is agroecology an alternative?

That’s what we’re talking about now with Ana Cláudia – Professor at the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco in the area of Rural Extension and Agricultural Education. She was General Coordinator of Federative Articulation and Local Supply Systems at the Secretariat of Supply, Cooperativism and Food Sovereignty at the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Family Agriculture.
