Dear all,

The American Confederation of Farmers Organizations for a Sustainable
Agriculture (CAAPAS), whose origin began with associations of farmers who
had promoted No-Till System, is currently working to promote sustainable
production systems. CAAPAS comprises the following organizations: Uruguayan
Association pro No-Till (AUSID), Brazilian No-Till and Irrigation
Federation  (FEBRAPDP), Paraguayan No-Till Federation for a Sustainable
Agriculture (FEPASIDIAS) and Argentine No-Till Farmers Association
(AAPRESID).

CAAPAS will be hosting the 7th World Congress on Conservation Agriculture
(7WCCA) from 1-4 of August 2017 in Rosario - Santa Fe - Argentina, along
with the XXV AAPRESID Congress which in 2016 brought 5,000 attendants and
further 5,000 online from all over the world but especially from South
America (click here for last edition video summary
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bh6ncQUpH2U&list=PLMiwxgAFUG9cjbbi4HOuzDe75yalBj0o0>).


The 7WCCA provides the opportunity to learn from No-Till farmers
associations and network with an international gathering of agricultural
experts. Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay want to show the modern
agricultural, based on the principles of Conservation Agriculture (CA), our
known No-Till System, and with FARMERS, the crucial actors of this
revolution.

Agricultural production systems are not sustainable unless they are
profitable, and CA holds the key to building and maintaining healthy soils
and profitable farming systems. Food security, climate change, smallholder
and family agriculture, gender equality, biotech, machinery innovations,
bioenergy, water, soils, crops, agribusiness, legislation and more are
going to be part of the 7WCCA programme agenda.

Find attached more detailed explanations. Further information will be
uploaded soon on the congress website:http://congresoaapresid.org.ar/

I am available for consults.

Best,

Ing. Agr. Santiago Nocelli Pac
