National Production and Consumption Policy

Fecha de inicio: 31/12/2010
Fecha de fin: N/A

Description

Colombia's National Sustainable Production and Consumption Policy recognizes the agroindustrial sector as strategic due to its high export and growth potential, especially in areas such as sugar, flowers, bananas and biofuels. This sector, intensive in the use of resources, shows significant potential for optimization in the use of energy, water and raw materials. The policy highlights the importance of implementing good practices and clean technologies to reduce the carbon footprint and take advantage of waste. The agribusiness is in a constant process of transformation, which makes it sensitive to sustainability strategies, contributing directly to the general goals of the policy.
