Farmer Communities'S Adaptative Response In Front Of Climatic Changes'S Effects, Vinales National Park

With the Green Revolution's development, agriculture was intensified with the aim of ensuring abundant and safe food production, without taking into account natural resources, agrobiodiversity, and the climate would not change with the application of these intensive actions in agriculture, this model is being unsustainable and dependent on external resources. That is why it is necessary to move towards agroecological agriculture, introduction of efficient technologies, development of investments in adaptation and mitigation, and changes in global consumption. The study allows an evaluation of the experiences validated in rural communities, through the introduction of new agroecological practices and the design of more resistant and sustainable agricultural systems in the buffer zone and socioeconomic area of the Vinales National Park protected area. The work compares land uses and changes, based on the evaluation of sustainability indicators, applying agroecological techniques as a response and adaptation of farmers to climate change, from 2005 to 2019, and its agroecological transformations through the introduction of new methods of sustainable agriculture, as well as assessing the resilience level of each farm, with the support of the Center for Research and Environmental Services and the Global Small Grants Program and the Association of Small Farmers.
