Circular Agriculture; where Colombia and the Netherlands meet…
The circular agriculture strategy of the agricultural department of the Royal Netherlands Embassy in Bogota, Colombia: Where Colombia and the Netherlands meet, offers prioritized circular agriculture focus areas in Colombia and corresponding working agendas for 2020-2022.
In September 2018, the Dutch Minister of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality presented the vision on circular agriculture. The vision maps out the road in the near and distant future for a transition in agriculture from continuously increasing production and cutting costs towards agricultural production with as low as possible pressure on the environment and natural resources by closing agricultural production cycles. To realize this ambition, the Netherlands not only works within its own borders, but also aims and needs to cooperate with other countries, like countries of origin on which the Netherlands is dependent for its imports.
In Colombia, the agricultural department of the Royal Netherlands Embassy has developed a strategy for the coming years to realize the transition towards a more circular agriculture. The strategy consists of two parts: a vision of six prioritized focus areas and corresponding working agendas for 2020-2022.
