“Now there are enough food for everyone, but there is a distribution problem. People don’t have the money to buy food,” he says.
“I think we’re going through a crucial phase. The ‘green revolution’ doesn’t work anymore. So it’s time to review this model that was very successful and so abandon it causes resistance. But I think it’s a matter of time until we can get it. Because today we have alternatives in ecological or regenerative agriculture that offer better quality products, and the consumer knows it.”
Connect farmers with consumers
Today, one of the biggest challenges is to feed people with quality products, Graziano points out. He advocates the creation of programs aimed mainly at children and urban peripheral areas, where most “food deserts” are concentrated – areas where minimally processed or fresh products such as fruits, vegetables and vegetables are difficult.
“Nowadays, you go to a suburb of a large city anywhere in the world and it is very difficult to find fruits and vegetables. There are many kiosks that sell soda, cakes, hamburgers and ultra -processed products, rich in sugar, salt and trans fats,” he illustrates.
One of the exits is to facilitate the contact of farmers with consumers, with outdoor fairs, for example.
