Development and use of bioinputs for sustainable agriculture in Latin America

Fecha de inicio: 2024
Fecha de fin: 2028

Description

Regional project that seeks to improve the sustainability of agricultural systems in Latin America and the Caribbean by incorporating technologies based on bioinputs. These include microorganisms, botanical extracts and derivatives that act as biofertilizers and biocontrollers. The initiative proposes to standardize quality protocols, develop biological alternatives with commercial application, integrate them into strategic crop management schemes and promote their use through training, communication and knowledge management. It has a participatory approach, with emphasis on small and medium-sized producers, women and young people, and is being implemented in Costa Rica, Honduras, Panama and Venezuela.

Observations

The technical cooperation was authorized by FONTAGRO's Board of Directors in July and November 2024. The project is aligned with the SDGs (3, 6, 12, 13 and 15) and with IDB and FONTAGRO strategies.
