• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Agribusiness is an important sector of the Conesul economy. During its expansion, starting in the 1950s, driven by the modernization of the countryside, it caused deep changes in the social relations of labor in rural areas, generating unemployment, redefining the subordination of workers with the new dynamics of production, since it substituted a large part of human labor by machinery. It generated great changes in environmental relations, since it expanded the area produced, the volume produced, and on the other hand, it cut down forests, expropriated families, and polluted water resources and the atmosphere. However, what they preach in their speeches is that the sector generates employment and income for the countries of the Southern Cone, and thus, they end up masking the environmental and social impacts generated. In this context, the general objective of the research was to "Identify the Environmental Education developed by companies in the Agribusiness sector, through associations, teaching materials available on websites, workshops developed in the Conesur area. For this, we used as research method the bibliographical survey and document analysis.
