"the food production system derived from the Green Revolution relies on huge external resources and costs the environment dearly. Soil, forests, water sources, air quality and biodiversity continue to deteriorate. " Jos é Graziano da Silva, president of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), sounded the death knell. "the model of pursuing production at all costs has not eliminated hunger, and obesity has become a global epidemic."

At the second "Ecological Agriculture Seminar" held at the FAO headquarters in Rome last week, Dashiva, who is responsible for guiding global food farming trends, told government representatives from 72 countries and thousands of participants: "We need to change the current system of producing and consuming food to a sustainable system that can provide healthy and nutritious food and protect the environment."

Ecological agriculture (Agroecology), which takes into account economy, society and culture, is the key to the transformation.
