Resumen
Producción y consumo de productos orgánicos de la feria orgánica El Trueque,
ubicada en Barrio el Carmen de Paso Ancho, San José Costa Rica.
La feria orgánica el Trueque como pionera en el país, sin duda alguna ha aportado
una transformación cultural en cuanto a una significativa evolución de los hábitos de
consumo de los compradores, pues mediante un trato directo con el cliente, los ha
involucrado con el modelo de la feria: en esencia, más acorde con el medio ambiente y
como un modelo a escala, para la promoción -país-,de una forma alternativa de
desarrollo sostenible; aún y cuando aceptemos que esta producción, requiere sin duda
más atención, involucramiento, paciencia, y esmero en el proceso como tal, versus la
agricultura convencional. Esto incide en el precio de sus productos, sin embargo, el
consumidor actual de la feria es consciente de esto y adquiere con gusto sus productos,
a cambio de todos los beneficios recibidos a partir del consumo de productos cosechados
en armonía con la naturaleza, y por ende, libre de pesticidas, herbicidas, plaguicidas, etc.
Por lo anterior, conocer cuáles son los motivos por los cuales los productores de
la feria orgánica El Trueque cultivan productos orgánicos, nos podría allanar el camino
al otorgarse pistas”, respecto a si ¿existe alguna incidencia en el consumo de productos
orgánicos?, y ¿en qué medida?
Lo que se pretende con ello es generar conocimientos útiles, recomendaciones y
observaciones, a partir de la experiencia del productor y el consumidor de la feria El
Trueque. Así los productores mejoren sus condiciones actuales, a partir de sus
conocimientos y experiencia como feria pionera en el país, tomando en cuenta las
necesidades y expectativas de los consumidores. Asimismo, se busca aumentar los
conocimientos actuales de los productores y productoras de la feria orgánica El Trueque,
con el fin de promover su crecimiento y que en su perfil de organización pionera, sirva
de modelo o tendencia para la creación y desarrollo, tanto de nuevos y actuales
mercados locales, como de productos orgánicos, favoreciendo de esta manera el
impulso y comercialización de la agricultura orgánica en el país, y por qué no, hasta
ayude a lograr en mayor o menor medida, independencia y autodeterminación
alimenticia.
