This organisation is located on the island of Panay, and is made up of some 30 families who use agriculture to grow sugar cane and the products they need for their own food.<\/p>\n
Through the export of Fair Trade products, they are obtaining resources that allow them to gradually resolve the difficulties faced by their productive activity, such as: the lack of electricity, the use of obsolete machinery, transport difficulties, etc.<\/p>\n
They have also made investments that improve the living conditions of the entire community, such as the construction of a day-care centre.<\/p>\n
Production is carried out in accordance with the criteria of organic farming, using earthworm excrement as fertiliser. From the sugar cane they produce the whole cane sugar called Mascobado, which contains no chemical additives, so that the taste is preserved intact. Almost the entire production is currently exported.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":9210,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9071","cooperativa","type-cooperativa","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
