Organic agriculture and agroforestry systems have gained prominence in terms of productivity and commercialization in the Federal District, when considering favorable conditions for their local establishment.

The main difficulty encountered by local farmers is inherent to the availability of labor and access to rural credit directed to the productive activities of the public of organic and agroforestry, which have different characteristics compared to conventional farmers. The DF has a goo d structure for organic production, with public policies and infrastructure that function as a basis for the local development of activities. The technicians demonstrated knowledge of the difficulties faced by the farmers and the understanding of the local productive and market characteristics. The organic fairs and the CSAs have a good structure and an important guarantee in the distribution of the products, representing the income of the farmers and the local sustainable development, in each of the economic, environmental and social aspects.
