Florida, February – We Cubans have heard too many times in recent days about the importance of moving towards sovereignty and food and nutritional security for the nation and all its inhabitants; But, What is the meaning of these words identified as Yojana San?
according to him United Nations Food Fund (FAO)Food security is when all people have sustainable physical, social and economic access to food that is safe, nutritious and sufficient to meet their needs in order to live healthy and active lives.
We will talk about sovereignty and food security in the agricultural sector when we will be able to exploit the maximum available land and take productive advantage of it along the lines of cultivation, both planting and harvesting of root vegetables, fruits and vegetables . livestock; and organize an efficient, legitimate collection and marketing system within the reach of all people and the current wages of the population.
Food independence and sustainability and effective nutrition will only be possible if each unit and individual producer of traditional and Chinese agriculture is able to carry out the relevant tasks responsibly and efficiently.
and do it with efficient use of available resources, without diverting destinations in pursuit of profits to the detriment of social demands; When science and technology are used in a controlled and timely manner, based on the quality and performance of what is created, displaced to oblivion and prostration among other practices.
It is true that adverse weather conditions affect us: droughts, floods and storms; Economic factors, including political instability, or unemployment, rising prices and other factors have an impact on people’s poor food security, but in our case they cannot and should not be deterministic or perennial justifications for stopping.
There are many examples that show that it is possible and that there is a lot of caballeria in the hands of people and groups that can and should do more for food sovereignty: for the independence of the Cuban Homeland.
