This blog attempts to become a horn full of thoughts on the future of food, agriculture and other viands for life, like a cornucopia is full of food and grains.
I chose the name cornuthopia thinking in the native mesoamerican seed corn, and the uthopia of a world free of hunger (the ‘h’ in the word utopia is my invention). Food is common to everyone, for people in the countryside and in the cities, so food must be in every place. Land must be used to grow food, not just profits. Food must be in our hands, feeding our stomachs, food must be a human right.
Cornuthopia intends to harvest alternatives against the paradox of ‘starved and stuffed’. The quest for food sovereignty is a key piece to overcome this paradox: Sovereignty to decide what to grow and how, what to eat and which seeds to use, and against dependence of inputs and food delivered by corporations.
