Esta victoria fue impulsada en parte por el testimonio poderoso y sincero de Manuel Reyes, un agricultor y beneficiario del Programa Piloto de Transici\u00f3n Org\u00e1nica (OTPP). Su historia puso de relieve la importancia de garantizar a los agricultores el apoyo que necesitan para la transici\u00f3n a la agricultura org\u00e1nica y el acceso a nuevos mercados.<\/p>\n<p>El testimonio de Manuel dej\u00f3 una huella imborrable en los miembros del comit\u00e9. Un agricultor con muchos a\u00f1os de experiencia, habl\u00f3 de los retos de crear confianza con los clientes sin certificaci\u00f3n org\u00e1nica. \"El problema era que, sin certificaci\u00f3n, resultaba incre\u00edblemente dif\u00edcil ganarse la credibilidad de los nuevos clientes. No se fiaban de que mis alimentos fueran org\u00e1nicos sin la etiqueta oficial\". Manuel hizo hincapi\u00e9 en que la agricultura org\u00e1nica est\u00e1 en consonancia con sus valores y aporta el beneficio econ\u00f3mico de una prima en el precio que ofrece la certificaci\u00f3n. Sin embargo, se\u00f1al\u00f3 que el camino hacia la certificaci\u00f3n conlleva obst\u00e1culos y que, sin el apoyo adecuado, es dif\u00edcil tener \u00e9xito.<\/p>\n<p>El \u00e9xito del proyecto de ley AB 937 es un hito clave en el esfuerzo continuo por apoyar a los agricultores org\u00e1nicos. Este proyecto de ley ampliar\u00e1 el acceso a la asistencia t\u00e9cnica y proporcionar\u00e1 los recursos necesarios para que los agricultores realicen con \u00e9xito la transici\u00f3n a la agricultura org\u00e1nica. Estamos un paso m\u00e1s cerca de asegurar que los agricultores org\u00e1nicos de California tienen las herramientas que necesitan para prosperar, y estamos muy contentos de seguir avanzando en esta importante legislaci\u00f3n.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La semana pasada, el proyecto de ley AB 937 avanz\u00f3...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":54426,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"0","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"33965,39141,39084,39138,33813,39135,33828,52529,33938,33755","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[110],"class_list":["post-54425","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-advocacy-news","advocacy_campaigns-organic-transition"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 -
