Abstract
El presente trabajo tiene por objetivos describir el proceso de certificación de agricultura biodinámica Demeter en productores de café (Coffea Arábica), así como describir y analizar la experiencia de la Agricultura Biodinámica y sus conceptos para la certificación Demeter. Asimismo, examinamos los principios de agricultura biodinámica que además de su carácter claramente ecológico, se basa en la dimensión espiritual de la relación entre el ser humano y la Tierra, como un ser con vida propia basada en fuerzas cósmicas. Se ha desarrollado la experiencia profesional describiendo el proceso de conversión a la Agricultura Biodinamica “Demeter” y el proceso de inspección-certificación por “Demeter International”. Los requisitos específicos “Demeter” cumplen con el concepto de la “granja viva”, la crianza de animales, el uso de preparados biodinámicos y el uso del calendario biodinámico. La experiencia de Agricultura Biodinámica se ubica en La Finca “la Chacra D’dago” ubicada en Santa Herminia-Palomar, Junín, Perú. La “Chacra D’dago” obtuvo la certificación orgánica UE, NOP desde el año 2000. Desde el año 2012 está certificado con Demeter, pero inicio los trabajos de agricultura biodinámica desde el 2006. Posteriormente, debido al crecimiento de la demanda de café Demeter en Europa, se formalizó un contrato de adhesión con un grupo de productores de café, se implementó un sistema de control interno y aprobaron una lista de productores para certificación orgánica para Europa, USDA-NOP y Demeter. Se concluye que la certificación “Demeter International” permite lograr acceder a mercados diferenciados, que potencializan el crecimiento de la exportación de café orgánico y biodinámico “Demeter”. Cabe resaltar que el método “biodinámico”, es un mecanismo importante basado no sólo en producir con abonos orgánicos, sino principalmente en seguir principios para crear "organismos vivos" basados en diversificar los animales y plantas, en diversificar la vida en el suelo y la vida humana de manera conjunta.
The objectives of this work are to describe the Demeter biodynamic agriculture certification process in coffee producers (Coffea Arabica), as well as to describe and analyze the experience of Biodynamic Agriculture and its concepts for Demeter certification. Likewise, we examine the principles of biodynamic agriculture, which in addition to its clearly ecological character, is based on the spiritual dimension of the relationship between humans and the Earth, as a being with its own life based on cosmic forces. Professional experience has been developed describing the conversion process to Biodynamic Agriculture “Demeter” and the inspection-certification process by “Demeter International”. The specific “Demeter” requirements comply with the concept of the “living farm”, animal husbandry, the use of biodynamic preparations and the use of the biodynamic calendar. The Biodynamic Agriculture experience is located at La Finca “la Chacra D’dago” located in Santa Herminia-Palomar, Junín, Peru. The “Chacra D'dago” obtained the EU organic certification, NOP since 2000. Since 2012 it has been certified with Demeter, but it began biodynamic agriculture work in 2006. Later, due to the growth in demand for Demeter coffee In Europe, an adhesion contract was formalized with a group of coffee producers, an internal control system was implemented and a list of producers was approved for organic certification for Europe, USDA-NOP and Demeter. It is concluded that the “Demeter International” certification allows access to differentiated markets, which enhance the growth of the export of organic and biodynamic “Demeter” coffee. It should be noted that the “biodynamic” method is an important mechanism based not only on producing with organic fertilizers, but mainly on following principles to create "living organisms" based on diversifying animals and plants, diversifying life in the soil and human life together.
