Agro Fossil Free - Økologisk landbrug som en del af strategien for en bæredygtig udvikling af landdistrikter i Andalusien

General beskrivelse

Achieving the ability to grow food crops and raise livestock completely changed people's way of life thousands of years ago. Subsequent continuous advances in agronomy have contributed to higher yields per hectare worked. However, this progress has been accompanied in recent decades by the abuse of certain chemicals in agriculture and the extension of farms into areas of high biodiversity, which has caused tragic damage to the natural environment. Furthermore, the negative consequences for the health of individuals of consuming foodstuffs laden with industrial chemical components have been amply demonstrated. As a result of the deterioration observed in the environment and in the quality of foodstuffs caused by agricultural modernisation, an initial trend towards the systemic construction of organic farming emerged in the 1920s.
