School cafeterias in Villa Regina, Río Negro: an expression of the fragmentation between the farms and the city

The area of the Alto Valle de Río Negro presents a great diversity of food production, although we do not know how much of it reaches the plates of the boys and girls who attend schools.

description The area of the Alto Valle de Río Negro presents a great diversity of food production, although we do not know how much of it reaches the plates of the boys and girls who attend schools. This becomes relevant if we consider that the problem of excess weight in childhood is a priority. The objective of the work was to inquire about the characteristics of the School Canteens Program in the town of Villa Regina and to describe the conceptions and experiences of different actors regarding the service management model, modalities of purchase and distribution of food, definition of the menus and meal preparation and the impact of the health emergency. Interviews were conducted with management teams and teachers from urban and rural educational institutions, municipal officials and representatives of the Alto Valle School Council. Content analysis technique was deployed to analyze the information. The school food service is decentralized, however, we found that the purchase and distribution of food to educational institutions is carried out by a single provider, as well as situations of indifference to local food traditions in pursuit of the discourse of "healthy eating”. The general guidelines for the menus are established at the provincial level and the school cooks display their knowledge and skills to offer a nutritious and varied meal. We observe that there is no link with local food producers and a concern about the return of hunger during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is necessary to recover the articulation between the farms and the city, between local food production and school feeding to promote the social economy, the generation of community networks and family farming, as well as to bring the producer and the child diner closer, revaluing the regional food culture and local production.

La zona del Alto Valle de Río Negro presenta una gran diversidad de producción de alimentos, aunque desconocemos cuánto de ella llega a los platos de los/as niños y niñas que asisten a las escuelas. Ello cobra relevancia si consideramos que el problema del exceso de peso en las infancias es prioritario. El objetivo del trabajo fue indagar sobre las características del Programa de Comedores Escolares en la localidad de Villa Regina y describir las concepciones y experiencias de distintos actores en torno al modelo de gestión del servicio, modalidades de compra y distribución de los alimentos, definición de los menús y preparación de las comidas y al impacto de la emergencia sanitaria. Se realizaron entrevistas a equipos directivos y docentes de instituciones educativas urbanas y rurales, funcionarios/as del municipio y a referentes del Consejo Escolar del Alto Valle Este. Para la interpretación de la información se desplegó la técnica de análisis de contenido. El servicio de alimentación escolar se encuentra descentralizado, sin embargo, encontramos que la compra y distribución de alimentos a las instituciones educativas las realiza un único proveedor, así como también, situaciones de indiferencia a las tradiciones alimentarias locales en pos del discurso de “lo saludable”. Los lineamientos generales para los menús se establecen a nivel provincial y las/os cocineras/os de las escuelas despliegan sus conocimientos y habilidades para ofrecer una comida rica y variada. Observamos que no existe vinculación con productores/as de alimentos locales y una preocupación por el retorno del hambre durante la pandemia por COVID-19. Resulta necesario recuperar la articulación entre las chacras y la ciudad, entre la producción local de alimentos y la alimentación escolar a fin de promover la economía social, la generación de redes comunitarias y la agricultura familiar, así como también acercar al/a la productor/a y el/la niño/a comensal, revalorizando la cultura alimentaria regional y la producción local.
