Resumen
The need of the human being to associate has been immersed in its existence since the beginning of its evolution. Approximately 2.85 million years ago in the Paleolithic era, human beings were forced to live in very large groups to avoid being devoured by predators, killed by strong and volatile climate changes, or to get the necessary food to survive to the hostile panorama that presented itself. During the following era called Mesolitic, the association would have a greater weight, because starting from the climatic changes that occurred men began to leave the caves and organized in a more elaborate, so some were engaged in hunting, others they focused their energies on fishing and some others (usually women) were dedicated to the upbringing of newborns, this differentiation of tasks was mainly done according to their physical conditions. However, it was not until the Neolithic era, which dates back more than 9,000 years ago, that man began to settle in certain areas that would allow him to extract greater benefits from nature, managing to evolve from a purely predatory economy (through hunting and fishing). to a productive economy, thus giving birth to agriculture and livestock. The development of such economic activities, would be essential for the evolution of the slave economy that would be the precursor of the prehistoric era and that would be characterized by the end of the equalities of primitive men because of, as its name says, slavery of man for man. They were also fundamental for the implementation of the feudal economy, in which work on earth was the most important for the subsistence of mankind and in which agriculture would achieve greater advances in terms of techniques. However, in the capitalist mode of production, although agriculture covers a large part of the economy, it has been accompanied by the great growth of the services sector and by the rise of industrialization, sectors that have taken much of the market and that have diverted the productive forces for their improvement and development. This implementation has brought about improvements and advances in humanity, but it has also had a negative impact on the wellbeing of the planet and of man, as a culture has been generated destined for excessive consumption and an unconsciousness about the importance of land, of care of water and the preservation of the environment. The association of man, which, as previously stated, has been a necessity for prolonging life and subsistence since antiquity, has also been weakened, since money and power have taken on greater importance than the life of the human being. of inequalities and therefore unemployment, have created serious problems for communities that have to constantly fight against hunger, malnutrition and poverty. This project will highlight the importance of agriculture in the municipality of CotaCundinamarca, based on family agriculture for sustainable development, for the fight against hunger and malnutrition, and at the same time promote the associative practice in response to the capitalist economy, in favor of equity and the eradication of poverty, emphasizing the care of the environment as the fundamental axis for the existence and prolongation of life. The project of FAMILY FARMING IN COTA - CUNDINAMARCA FOR THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MUNICIPALITY will be carried out with families of the municipality of Cota, thanks to the agreement of the Cooperative University of Colombia with the Municipal Mayor's Office, and will consist of sessions of direct intervention, in which will make an initial diagnosis to verify the problem to intervene, training will be held to raise awareness among the population regarding the importance of Agriculture, and finally will be carried out Family Farming crops promoting the community to the association for the sale and exchange of products.
