Abstract

ARZENO, Mariana Beatriz; DEHEZA, Rocío del Pilar; MUNECAS, Lucila  and  ZANOTTI, Aymara Suyai. Discussions around public policies for food sovereignty and family farming in Misiones (Argentina). Mundo agrar. [online]. 2015, vol.16, n.32, pp.00-00. ISSN 1515-5994.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the policies for food sovereignty in Misiones and its relation to the demands of family farmer's organizations, taking into account different views on the subject of the actors involved and the actions that are routed from different levels of government. The research is based on primary and secondary information. This analysis reveals divergences between the idea of food sovereignty of provincial government (replacing food imports) and national government (democratization of access) that support intervention strategies to some extent contradictory and distanced from the demands of family farmer's organizations (centered on the land, to produce food).
