Dear all

In representation of the American Confederation of Farmers Organizations
for a Sustainable Agriculture (CAAPAS), which origin began with
associations of farmers that had promoted the No Till System and currently
working to promote sustainable production systems and is comprised by 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 next 1-4 of August 2017 in
Rosario - Santa Fe -Argentina along with the XXV Aapresid´s congress witch
in last edition brought 5.000 attendants and more 5.000  online from all
over the world but especially from South America (click here for last
edition video sumary
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bh6ncQUpH2U&list=PLMiwxgAFUG9cjbbi4HOuzDe75yalBj0o0>)
.
The 7th WCCA 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 proposal.

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,
