Políticas en favor de Industriales y en Detrimento del Campesinado: Colombia, Risaralda, Santa Rosa de Cabal Durante la Primera Etapa de la Revolución Verde (1970-1990)

Between 1970 and 1990, Colombia's Coffee Cultural Landscape underwent significant transformations due to policies aligned with global coffee market demands. The National Federation of Coffee Growers implemented strategies that led to the replacement of traditional Arabic seeds with genetically modified ones, causing widespread deforestation, loss of biodiversity, and disruption of peasant-ecosystem relationships. These changes included the elimination of shade trees, displacement of birds, and abandonment of hydrographic basins, while farmers served as experimental subjects for new agricultural practices. The study highlights how industrial interests, mediated by institutional policies, reshaped both the landscape and social structures in Risaralda's Santa Rosa de Cabal during the early Green Revolution phase.
