[Conceptual elements for agroindustry and its presence in rural areas]
1988
Planella Villagra, I.
Destaca que el desarrollo agroindustrial constituye la unica salida para la modernizacion agricola, ya que la puesta en marcha de agroindustrias arrastra e incorpora la tecnologia al campo y la hace rentable. Es por esta razon, que los elementos de desarrollo agroindustrial e instrumentos incentivadores deben ser coherentes y permitir integrar las partes que constituyen las empresas agroindustriales. Presenta el marco conceptual de la agroindustria, indicando que se fundamenta en tres elementos integrados y vinculados entre si: produccion primaria, industrializacion y la comercializacion, todo ello en funcion de los mercados. Analiza el rol de la agroindustria como sistema para el diseno de politicas, las formas asociativas de produccion (FAS) y la agroindustria, senalando la razon del por que, entre las empresas privadas, las FAS (cooperativas, asociaciones, etc.) son las que han tenido mayor dificultad para establecer empresas agroindustriales. Finalmente, explica la estrategia que permita la instalacion y desarrollo de empresas agroindustriales en una region o en un pais, para lo cual es necesario considerar el marco institucional, tanto a nivel estatal como privado. Describe este enfoque agroindustrial intersectorial e interinstitucional

2012
Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
It is widely accepted that agricultural development will be severely curtailed without addressing the risks and capitalizing on the opportunities posed by climate change (FAO, 2010b). The agriculture sector must adapt to the impacts of climate change in order to provide food security to the world’s growing population. At the same time agriculture must mitigate its contributions to climate change (13.5 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions) in order to slow the progression of this global challenge (FAO, 2009). Concurrently, it is internationally recognized that addressing gender issues in agriculture reduces hunger and poverty. In fact, it is estimated that more than 100 million people could be lifted out of poverty if women had the same access to and control of resources as men (FAO, 2011a). Although they are important food producers and providers, women presently have limited access to and control of resources. However, to date, these ideas – that climate change and gender issues are integral parts of agricultural development – have not been implemented in an effective way. This guide seeks to fill that gap by supporting work to investigate the gender dimensions of responding to climate change in the agriculture and food security sectors. The final goals are to improve food production, livelihood security and gender equality in the context of the changing climate.
