Estevan Coca, CASAS’ member, has organised this book with Adriano Santos.

Abstract: The south and south-west of Minas Gerais is known worldwide for its arabica coffee production, but the region’s agriculture goes far beyond that. Here, land disputes, struggles against agribusiness, agroecological experiments, fairs, academic events and social movements that challenge the capitalist model of agrarian production coexist. The book brings together critical reflections on these dynamics, addressing conflicts, resistance and sustainable alternatives in the region.
