Este manual aglutina una serie de experiencias desarrolladas por el proyecto y presenta, de manera objetiva y clara, los procesos metodológicos para cada una de las opciones descritas. Cada alternativa agroecológica se ha estructurado en una ficha informativa de fácil comprensión y aplicación en campo. Se espera que este material sea aprovechado por las comunidades rurales del trópico americano, por productores y productoras, estudiantes y académicos del agro, en pro de un ambiente más sano y una inocuidad más tangible de los productos agrícolas provenientes de las áreas de producción
