Abstract
Este estudio examina el papel primordial de la responsabilidad social en la promoción de una agricultura sostenible, haciendo hincapié en la importancia de esta interrelación para el futuro del planeta. En un contexto en el que el rápido crecimiento demográfico presenta uno de los retos más significativos para la producción sostenible de alimentos, la agroecología emerge como un factor indispensable estrechamente vinculado al progreso social. Una exploración en profundidad de la compleja estructura de los sistemas alimentarios modernos pone de relieve la acuciante necesidad de estrategias integradas y holísticas para hacer frente a estos desafíos. Partiendo de este argumento, se propone una toma de decisiones estratégica y coherente como componente crítico de nuestra sociedad globalizada. En este contexto, observamos un vigoroso resurgimiento del interés por la agricultura orgánica y biodinámica, lo que indica un cambio hacia prácticas más armoniosas con el ambiente y sostenibles a largo plazo. Para concluir, el discurso se adentra en un debate sobre el concepto de intensificación agrícola responsable, viéndolo a través del prisma de la agricultura regenerativa. Esta breve reflexión subraya su importancia predominante en la configuración de un futuro en el que la agricultura sostenible no sea solo un ideal, sino una realidad firmemente establecida.
