description |
A systematization and a quantitative and qualitative analysis of scientific documents
are presented, which respond: What are the main contributions of research in relation
to the demands of agroecology in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC)? What factors
approaches and methods have been used in time and space? The quantitative approach
predominates, followed by the qualitative one, and the mixed one to a lesser extent. The
development of agroecology in LAC is distributed in: a country with greater consolidation
(Brazil), a larger group in development, another with initial contributions and,
finally, one with minimal contributions. The most considered factors in the investigations
are the physical-biological ones, followed by the social, economic, cultural, and
political ones. Two thirds of the contributions to agroecological demands were: agroecological
management, maintenance of biodiversity, self-management and local self-sufficiency,
and soil and water conservation. Some contributions have been intensified at
present, while agroecological management has prevailed over time. The predominance
of conventional research approaches, methods and techniques is evident; the challenge
is to generate new ways of seeing and doing research, which allow addressing the disciplinary
interfaces of the complex problem in the society-nature relationship. |
