Features New animation: For feminist agroecologies (EN, ES, FR, PT, NL) What is the story behind the food you eat? What if people really valued all the underpaid and unpaid work behind every meal? What if women didn't have to do most of the work? What if it wasn't Black, Indigenous, and people of color who bore most of the burden? These are some of the questions raised in the short animation ‘For feminist agroecologies’ (2’19’’) by the AgroecologyNow collective. The film delves into the inequalities the food system is built on, and calls for agroecologies that fight racism, sexism and all forms of oppression.

Drawing on the experience of feminist food activits from Mexico and Spain, the first episode ‘What does feminism have to do with the food you eat?’ (31 min) unpacks the ways in which it is necessary to go beyond gender for food system transformation and how it can be done in practice.

The chinampas were floating beds made like a basket of reeds in which organic material was collected to generate soil and produce food in the middle of a lake. The ingenious pre-hispanic cropping system of the Chinampas in Xochimilco, south of Mexico City is under threat today. Now the beds no longer float, but are plots of land separated by canals. The water is contaminated and the chinampas are used for weekend parties and industrial flower production. Mexico City is long overdue for agroecological policies that protect its agro-gems.

Case studies featured include indigenous seed systems and biocultural heritage in the Andean Potato Park, a pioneering research project on Hebridean rye varieties for artisanal products in Scotland as well as seed saving and seed sharing in contemporary Japan.

In particular, he describes the network’s current experiments on selecting wheat varieties for cultivation by simultaneously taking into consideration agronomic, milling and baking criteria. Relatedly, he also makes the case for the need to develop new methods for assessing wheat and flour that are compatible with agroecological grain production and artisanal baking. https://wp.me/p67WNH-Yz<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwp.me%2Fp67WNH-Yz&data=05%7C01%7Cab4781%40coventry.ac.uk%7Cb34cce27965f45f12e7408da31b5ad6d%7C4b18ab9a37654abeac7c0e0d398afd4f%7C0%7C0%7C637876953620035161%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Zk23WjPAzS4Z5WodvOsk5BrYHUt2ZVV6CA%2FNo0lgQWM%3D&reserved=0> Embracing Critical Friendship for Agroecology Transitions (EN, ES, FR) In this article Colin Anderson, Chris Maughan and Sydney Blume explain the notion of ‘the critical friend’.
