Many people have too much, far beyond what is necessary. Yet, in numerous places of the world, people are still suffering from hunger. Still, what is certain is that often poverty is not caused by insufficient natural resources.
One third of the population of the Global South practices agriculture in contexts that are highly suited to such activity. Yet, despite a favorable climate and right soil conditions, it is precisely these peoples that obtain less value from the agri-food supply chain. This is because often the main causes of vulnerability are not natural but infrastructural.
InspiraFarms is about to build a technological and cultural hub to address the global challenges of food supply chains. In this hub, a system of infrastructures and a training center will share with the local population knowledge and technologies to meet their needs.
