The knowledge produced by the scientific community in agroecology will be the fuel for the sustainable development of products and services, hence the urgent and imperative need for high competitiveness and the current economic situation.
▶ The agroecological system revolves around cutting-edge research and innovations that drive development associated with total quality, productivity and profitability aimed primarily at small and medium enterprises.

However, as I have pointed out before, these proposals for research and innovations in the area of agroecology are aimed at survival based on multidisciplinary research oriented exclusively to the growth of government policy, ignoring the problems suffered by Mother Nature, which has triggered climate change.
In this sense, it is necessary to begin to change the business and governmental perception that spending on science and technology does not benefit Mother Nature, since it only strengthens companies in areas such as productivity, quality and competitiveness.
And this becomes more evident because this reality is a factor that works against and generates greater profits for large capital companies, but for small, medium and micro companies that struggle to survive, it does not add profits, so in this same context there are also imbalances.
Therefore, there is an urgent challenge to seek new forms of production based on agroecological research and innovations, which subsequently generate marketing channels that reduce costs and focus production under central approaches that respect environmental sustainability.
