Análisis de prácticas agroecológicas como estrategia de Desarrollo Local Sostenible en la Vereda San Juan y áreas aledañas, de la Zona de Reserva Campesina de Sumapaz

Abstract

The purpose of this document is to characterize the agroecological practices implemented by the farmers of the villages of San Juan, Santo Domingo and Las Vegas, belonging to the Sumapaz Peasant Reserve Zone, through the information collected in the field by means of the application of research instruments, such as interviews and focus groups, recording the findings of the participating farms. Likewise, a diagnosis of the biotic, abiotic and socioeconomic environments of the selected study area was made, to later systematize and analyze the information collected, which allowed evaluating the level of sustainability of the farms selected by the work team through the methodology of Álvaro Acevedo Osorio, covering the environmental, economic and social components. Based on the results obtained, recommendations and suggestions were formulated with the objective of contributing to the reinforcement and implementation of actions aimed at the sustainable local development of the families living in the villages and surrounding areas of the Sumapaz locality. The recommendations can be applied and replicated by the farmers who participated in the process of elaboration of this monograph, as well as by those who are interested in the information provided.
