Opis

Agribusiness is an important sector of the Conesul economy. During its expansion, starting in the 1950s, driven by the modernization of the countryside, it caused deep changes in social labor relations in the rural space, generating unemployment, redefining the subordination of workers with the new dynamics of production, since it substituted a large part of human labor by machinery. It generated great changes in environmental relations, since it expanded the area produced, the volume produced, and for this it cut down forests, expropriated families, and polluted water resources and the atmosphere. However, what is preached in the speeches is that the sector generates employment and income for the countries of the Southern Cone, and thus ends up masking the environmental and social impacts generated. In this context, the general objective of the research was to "Identify the Environmental Education developed by companies in the Agribusiness sector, through associations, didactic material available on websites, workshops developed in the Conesul area. For this, we used as method the research, the bibliographical survey and document analysis.
