Description: |
Packaging with cashew pulp are seen in the manufacture process at the settlement Mulunguzinho, municipality of Mossoro, Rio Grande do Norte state, northeastern Brazil. This processing unit belongs to a group of women supported by the Cooperxique Cooperative and IFAD through the Farmers Organizations for Latin America project, with the European Union financing. Each farmer is unique within the Cooperxique Cooperative and is at a specific moment in their life, agroecological production and marketing within the solidarity economy. From those who produce for their own family's subsistence, to those who sell their surplus production at local fairs and in the cooperative's bodega, and even those who are in medium or large productions aiming to enter private markets, such as chains supermarket. It is up to the cooperative to keep an eye on each member’s profile and seek strategies to involve and support everyone. The community has managed to install automated equipment at the fruit pulp factory and the animal breeding program for slaughter, which directly benefits young people. |
