Organic agriculture is one of the fastest growing agricultural activities. In Mexico, both the number of producers and hectares devoted to it increased in recent years, giving small producers an opportunity to eliminate part of the exclusion generated by conventional agriculture and allow them to get into the market. However, it is important to know the situation of these producers from various perspectives, so in this work the measurement of their economic, ecological and socio-cultural sustainability was carried out in order to show that their inclusion in tianguis and organic markets allows them to be sustainable. For this, three markets of the Red Mexicana de Tianguis y Mercados Organicos were selected in the states of Tlaxcala, Puebla and Oaxaca, 30... |

For Mexico, organic farming is a feasible option, given the goodness it offers the country, since it is linked to the geography of poverty, mainly with small-scale farmers with surfaces below 3 ha, 22 indigenous groups, and 35% of women responsible for farming. In addition, it is linked to a form of production that protects and preserves natural resources. |

The Region of Murcia (Spain) has one of the main areas of organic fruit and vegetable production in Europe, with extensions for some products of between 10 and 20 % of the country’s organic agriculture surface. This work contains a survey carried out on 106 farmers, along with a typology of organic cultivations. First, an analysis was performed by conglomerates on the variables of each company, distinguishing small and large ones; later, using logistic regression models, an analysis was carried out on the characteristics that define the groups of farmers, the first one being the least professional but most environmentally aware farmers. The typology found of these farmers suggests the interest for more differentiated development policies for organic... |
