La asociatividad vía alterna para el fortalecimiento del pequeño agricultor colombiano

Abstract

In Colombia, the production and commercialization of food and natural raw materials for the industry are affected by fundamental obstacles to rural development, substantially limiting the development of the capacities of small farmers who, due to the lack of adequate organization, lack of support from the state, low economic investment, lack of real training on issues of association, violence and uprooting of young people from within their families, their traditions, their economy, their environment and natural resources are affected. Transparent associativity is shown as an alternative for the development and improvement of their quality of life and the commercialization of agriculture at the local, regional, national and world levels.
