is true, the argument of the manual for teachers that Ministry of Education's released, said in the beginning that " In extent that the environmental crisis is not ideologically neutral or outside economic interests and social, educational practice can not be. The policy forms part of the very nature of education, so that the problems of education are not only teaching, but essential and deeply political ".
concepts are unfamiliar to readers of Paulo Freire, a teacher placed on their time, watching the countryside became productive only in space but destroyed the social fabric and nature of attack.
The pools and the "soybean production, are one of the environmental problems in Argentina, not one, but one major and a teacher of Social Sciences, who serves in the countryside, which has addressed the issue permanently consequently, I am glad that now there is this manual.
state policies should not remain indifferent, it has an obligation to address the problem and help their understanding on the part of teachers, urban teachers principalment for those unfamiliar with the subject in its complexity.
But we must add, that any book of Geography Argentina is purchased today addresses this issue. I recently acquired a called "Social and Economic Geography Argentina (Briano Authors Esteban, Silvia Escalante, Adrian Iulita and Gisela Nadina Sgubin) Editorial Tinta Fresca.
In Chapter 5 talks about "Environmental Problems Argentina's current " and proposes the following titles which are then developed: Theories and environmental problems, the management of natural resources, the panacea of \u200b\u200bdevelopment, forestry, environmental impact and the soy boom, the deterioration of soils, mining and its consequences and ultimately citizenship action.
As we see, as in the reference manual, the theme of "soybean production" also appears in the private publishing ventures: is that a book geography do not address it would not be serious.
How about "Fresh Ink"?
An introduction enough. Says the editorial: "It's called soy boom, the rapid growth and rapid expansion of soybean cultivation in our Paias over the past fifteen years. This expansion is increasingly concerned hectares, therefore, other activities are relegated, for example, livestock, dairy, horticulture, beekeeping, and also move or decrease the cultivation of other species such as maize or wheat species because they are more demanding. On the other hand, the soybean boom caused the deforestation of large areas with the objective to adapt the land for cultivation of soybean.
The main problems arising from this activity are pesticide use and land clearing not grown. These joint exercises have lethal consequences for the agro-ecosystem, such as various species disappear, such as birds, rabbits, worms, among others, due to poisoning caused by pesticides and lack of food obtained from land clearing.
One of the main causes is the cultivation of transgenic soybean species with the addition of genes resistant to the herbicide Round-up, because this variety favorfece continuous monoculture, meaning that the sowing is done without tilling the soil previously and previous crop residues are removed by applying the herbicide, and maintained with aerial spraying. "
After moving figures and the impact of this crop in regions with no tradition of soybean and says " Again, we must reflect on the soybean production process, satisfies the search of an extraordinary gain. The high yield obtained by the producers see them from the negative consequences for the environment or are not interested, because they belong to the place "
speak here of the large producers or seed pools, usually with the Pampas region in their greedy desire, rent land in Santiago del Estero and Chaco for soybean planting. Those regions to be "stripped" with the export model the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries (as for railway sleepers, fencing poles and rods, sleeve boards, and chargers, etc) and they did it for "dress" the pampas, now get this a "dress" that the attack again, because the "green soya their soil deteriorate inexorably.
And in this, the book publisher "Fresh Ink" is strong : the pools "are not interested because they do not belong to the place" . We will see that says "Manual" so criticized. To me with this and I achieved.
