Chilean
policy
on food security
1.
Some basic ideas
to ensure
food security
by strengthening
agricultural
trade
International trade plays
a fundamental role in
achieving food security, ensuring
the
population, both
physical access
to food for
a balanced diet,
and
economic
access
through employment and income
opportunities
![Page 4: PROJECT ON CONSERVATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND …project on conservation of the environment and rural development with farmer´s participation for the mediterranean dryland zone of](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062610/611fd7f18c8afe6fea152a96/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Trade should be
used as a tool
to address the effects
of
recent global
economic
crisis on food security.
Considering the need for
recovery of our
economies after the
crisis,
we need
to privilege joint effort to
reduce
trade barriers.

We must maintain the
commitment in order to not impose
new barriers
to
trade,
including
export restrictions, export subsidies
and other measures
that
are inconsistent with
the rules of the World Trade
Organization

2.
Efforts
should be made
by APEC economies
First,
continue the
trade
facilitation measures
implemented so far,
including:
the
Trade Facilitation Plan at reducing transaction costs in the
region

Second,
strengthen the commitment of
each member economy
to the
common goals
of liberalization for the APEC region.

Third,
maintain the principle of
"concerted unilateralism", as this
will allow
a
comprehensive liberalization
of trade among our
economies

Efforts and commitments
by Chile to
agricultural
trade facilitation
APEC
is
the main geographic area
for foreign trade
of
Chile.
In 2009, 63.5%
of Chilean exports
was led
to
APEC
economies in the region, as
well as
60.6%
of exports of agricultural and forestry sector

BRIEF OVERVIEW
Chile
has made specific commitments
in order to
strengthen trade
in the Asia‐
Pacific: despite being
a developing economy, Chile
is committed
to
a
unilateral tariff reduction
for most
products,
mutual and
balanced
conditions
![Page 11: PROJECT ON CONSERVATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND …project on conservation of the environment and rural development with farmer´s participation for the mediterranean dryland zone of](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062610/611fd7f18c8afe6fea152a96/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
It
is essential to strengthen
our instruments
and programs
for the sustainable economic, social
and
environmentally.
We suggest
promoting
the improvement of
soil, proper management
of
water
and proper management
of native forests,
among others.
Agriculture has
always worked
by changing
to a greater or
lesser extent,
the environment
to
guide
the production
of food
and goods for
humans.
That is why measures
should be encouraged
to use resources while ensuring
their preservation for
future generations.

In this regard, Chile
has implemented
a law to promote
irrigation
that allowed us
to
increase in
300%
mechanized irrigation
surface
in 20
years,
making
more
efficient use of
water

In
the same way, we must redouble
our commitment to
promote
agreements
that
advance the issue
of climate change given
the various effects
that
cause
this
phenomenon
in the medium term our
production base

Likewise,
we believe
important to coordinate
efforts and knowledge
to
standardize
the measurement of
carbon footprint and
water footprint

That´s
why
Chile
has implemented a riskmanagement policy
and agroclimatic
vulnerability establishing a National Emergency System of Agricultural
Production
Risk Management
and Insurance for farmers facing
these
weather issues.

This system
is based on
the change of a
"crisis management" to a "risk
management", implementing proactive
measures
to reduce
and/or mitigate the
effects of extreme weather event
or natural
disaster.

Another factor we consider important
is
the strengthening of
international
cooperation aimed at
technology transfer
to improve
agricultural
productivity, as well as
innovative processes
that increase the
productive
capacity,
without compromising our productive resource base
for
its
overuse
or
degradation.

In this context, we believe
that biotechnology
is a tool that
opens new
opportunities for
our economies.
A significant percentage
of Chilean exports
are
made up of
natural resources and their
derivatives,
and in this context,
biotechnology,
and
transgenics
in particular, is presented as
a powerful
tool that
will
increase
productivity, quality
and environmental sustainability
of agricultural
production

2. VIDEO ABOUT THE CADEPA PROJECT
.
![Page 20: PROJECT ON CONSERVATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND …project on conservation of the environment and rural development with farmer´s participation for the mediterranean dryland zone of](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062610/611fd7f18c8afe6fea152a96/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
1.
The
new climate scenarios
could significantly affect
the productive
performance
of crops
and fruit trees in
Chile.
2.
In
general
in the Central Zone of the country
would tend
to lower
yields
due to
increased
heat stress
and shortening of
phenological
cycles.
3.
CADEPA
project
demonstrated that
it is possible to
make a change in
the way
small farmers produce through
participatory
research
3. CONCLUSIONS
![Page 21: PROJECT ON CONSERVATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND …project on conservation of the environment and rural development with farmer´s participation for the mediterranean dryland zone of](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062610/611fd7f18c8afe6fea152a96/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
5. It is necessary
to do
more research
in these
fragile ecosystems with
environmental, social and productive limitations.
6. Nevertheless this experience can be exported to other countries with similar
problems
