Agroecological practices depend on ecological knowledge of local resources, especially biodiversity and nutrient cycling. Through short food supply chains, producers create a closer relationship with consumers, in addition to maintaining the quality and nutritional value of food. These processes retain more of the added value of food and can benefit low-income groups in several ways. These groups of producers and consumers need and demand support measures from public policies. These synergies build cooperative relationships between producers, consumers and civil society groups. All of this contributes to a Solidarity Economy (Economia Solidária in Latin America) based on agroecology. The abbreviation AgroEcos indicates that these practices have echos across time and space, thus replicating widely.
