INTENSIVE SWINE PRODUCTION IN LATIN AMERICA: - Yaxmareli Diaz Araujo - Bog

In Venezuela, as in all underdeveloped Latin American countries, there is evidence of state policies aimed at agricultural production in the swine sector, where capitalist dependence is encouraged, with an intensive, rentier and mercantilist economic model, with the worn-out discourse of population growth with the promotion and development of dependent industry. Establishing a submissive culture of individualism, selfishness, attacking any form of collective organization, hiding the popular power, the organized people and community organizations, when it is there where their best living conditions reside, their productive potential, becoming the veiled authority of the capitalist system. This has led to the imposition of conditions of social, economic and cultural rigidity, adhering to an undermined rural pork production, causing the abandonment of land and production to large cities as a mirror of underdevelopment.
