Sopporting the Family Agriculture
One of the biggest challenge to food security in my country (Paraguay) is to establish, develop and implement innovative instruments of support to the Family Agriculture that allows to improve the production and productivity of the farming and in consequent, increase the family revenue, for the improvement of the quality of life with the development sustenance and sustainable (environmental, social and economic) of the productive unit of the families beneficiaries, dedicated to the agricultural(farming) and forest sector.
And this is precisely the objective of the NATIONAL PROGRAM OF SUPPORT
TO THE FAMILY AGRICULTURE (PROGRAMA NACIONAL DE APOYO A LA AGRICULTURA FAMILIAR - PRONAF)
I show you, in the next resume of and article, what is one of the innovative solution that is already underway in the develop of the Project.
“Producers choose for the fish farming, as item of revenue and consume.
Working in in fish farming is not easy, and more difficult is work in community, but the challenges were overcome by 52 families of Coronel Oviedo's district, Caaguazú's department. For this year they propose to come to the production that would overcome 52 thousand kilograms of fish. With reservoirs and good desire, they were achieved to exceed the barriers to produce the hi'upyrâ (feed) and to obtain a worthy way of life. Several species already can be savored and commercialized by the families the committees demonstrate that the diversification in the production is a way of constructing the food safety.
Across the national program that supports the family agriculture, PRONAF, the Department of Agriculture supports the fish farmers with the equipment, the infrastructure and the technical inputs. The committees received 40 thousand fries, balanced, the construction of new tanks and different inputs.”
