Under schemes such as the Plan Mattei promoted by the far-right Italian government, thousands of hectares in the deserts of North Africa are being allocated to big farms. Food security problems, exacerbated by the climate crisis, will only get worse. https://t.co/9t6WQDWfyp
Legal opinion: New GMOs deregulation proposal shifts safety testing, liability to EU food industry. “Unbelievable but true: If a #GMO in food causes harm, the food sector would be held liable” even though with deregulation firms may not even know it is GMO https://t.co/iOUJoMU9rg

En todo el planeta, comunidades que dependen de la #pesca se enfrentan a las transnacionales camaroneras y pesqueras. La #acuicultura industrial es un negocio de 3 mil mill. de dólares en manos de poderosos actores #PescaArtesanal#SoberaníaAlimentaria https://t.co/ZyODp2M1pB
La población local sufre amenazas y violencia por oponerse a la operación del megapuerto. Pescadores artesanales son los principales afectados. La pesca ha disminuido de 30 Kg al día a solo 5Kg desde que el puerto se empezó a construir. https://t.co/GnkbrYb5Xi @lucianaghiotto
Desde su inauguración el megapuerto de #Chancay en #Perú sirve principalmente para exportar palma de aceite y otros productos de la agroindustria de América Latina a China https://t.co/MVH55kgw7n @WorldRainforest@GFC_forests
El puerto de Chancay es un megaproyecto construido en #Perú con una superficie de mil hectáreas. Se vincula con otros proyectos del IIRSA. Su construcción generó graves impactos socioambientales. Pero además será un empuje para el agronegocio. Hilo: https://t.co/SM2qxjqSpT

L'expansion rapide de l'aquaculture industrielle, un secteur qui vaut 300 milliards de $, a un coût énorme pour les communautés locales. Regardons de près : https://t.co/h9RxArmdbB
#Agroecology & #FoodSovereignty
1/ The global food system is broken—dominated by industrial agriculture, it harms the planet, exploits farmers, and fails to provide healthy food for everyone. Agroecology and food sovereignty offer a way forward. Let’s dive in👇
#AfDB’s special agro-industrial processing zones attract huge amounts of money for large-scale projects, giving #agribusiness access to fertile land, irrigation and cheap labour. In Nigeria, SAPZs will get US$2.2bn.
