Aapresid (Argentine No Till Farmers Association)
The Argentine Association of Producers in Direct Seeding (Aapresid) is a non-profit non-governmental organization. Integrated by a network of agricultural producers who, based on the interest in the conservation of their main resource, the soil, adopted and promoted the dissemination of a new agricultural paradigm, based on Direct Seeding. This new agriculture seeks to increase productivity without the negative effects of tillage schemes. And it is a real answer to the great dilemma between production and sustainability that the human species faces today: Produce food, fibers and biofuels, keeping in balance the economic, ethical, environmental and energy variables of our society. Our action is based on openly sharing knowledge among the members of the network, stimulating leadership and innovation. Our mission is to promote sustainable food, fiber and energy production systems, through innovation, science and networked knowledge management. More info: http://www.aapresid.org.ar/quienes-somos/
