SEGURIDAD ALIMENTARIA

SEGURIDAD ALIMENTARIA by Dra. Gladys M. González Martínez

This article by Dra. González (page 103) is excellent.  Although she speaks in general terms about food security, she provides a detailed analysis of the situation in Puerto Rico.  For years I have heard that we import around 85% of our food from outside the island, but I had never seen an official statement.  Dra. González provides it in this paper along with other critically important data about our agriculture and food security.

This is potentially interesting, but like most stuff from private companies, they don’t want people to know how it works.  So we have to trust them!  Seems to me to be a dying paradigm.
