Abstract

Sustainable development is not a goal to which we arrive, but rather a means of travel."
M. Novo.

It is clear that the Orinoco region has entered the global circuit of agricultural production systems. From the year 2010, there has been an increase in the area planted with monoculture (rice, soybeans, corn, oil palm and forestry with exotic species) in which foreign investors with large sums of capital have "discovered" us as the great frontier that allows them to increase their economic base and avoid the unmanageable intervention in their own country's ecosystems.
