Public policies in favor of agroecology throughout Latin America and especially in Argentina should
strengthen small producers, peasants and indigenous peoples who produce a large part of the food for
the domestic market, helping to delete the hunger. They can also help reduce conflicts over spraying with
agrochemicals in areas near towns and cities. Although there are numerous laws and ordinances that are
necessary to contribute to the change in the production model, the limited political support received from
agroecology places agroecological family producers in a situation of instability and defenselessness in the
face of the concentrated groups of the conventional model. Social movements and other community
organizations are essential to move towards agroecological systems.
