“…In general, modern chronic degenerative diseases such as diabetes mellitus, obesity, cancer, hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, to name just a few, are closely related to the foods we consume (Gallo et al, 2020;Grados et al, 2022). The above positions the agri-food sector as the highest priority and that we must revalue it to improve life and reduce environmental impacts (Vargas-Canales et al, 2023a).…”

The agri-food sector worldwide is the most important for life. The recent pandemic made it clear that the best way to resist, overcome and adapt to health problems is by maintaining a healthy, adequate and balanced diet. Currently, food comes almost entirely from agri-food systems, the problem is that the agri-food sector subordinated to an economic and scientific model with very clear interests and objectives. In this sense, the aim of this work was to carry out an analysis of the logic, dynamics and relationship between science, technology, agri-food systems, health and wellbeing from the perspective of Social Studies of Science and Technology. With what is intended contribute to the debate on the future and the strategic transformation of agri-food systems. As a first point, an exploration of the evolution and trends of science and technology in the agri-food sector is carried out. Next, an analysis is developed on the importance of agri-food systems and the ways in which they have been configured. Subsequently, the relationship between food and health and the main implications and damage caused by the current agri-food regime are addressed. Based on the above, some alternatives are proposed to improve nutrition, health and wellbeing. These alternatives imply, on the one hand, a profound reconfiguration of technological systems, orienting them toward the reproduction of life. Secondly, and as a consequence of the above, a reorganization of the economic and social systems. To achieve this, it is advisable to design a policy that promotes sustainable agri-food systems and integrate broad work and research groups that allow addressing these problems and proposing alternatives from different perspectives. Finally, it is important to design and implement science dissemination programs on the relationships, controversies, tensions and problems that exist between scientific and technological development and the agri-food sector, health and wellbeing with the aim of having a true impact on the society and a genuine social appropriation of knowledge.

“…Una dieta adecuada y equilibrada es importante para fortalecer el sistema inmunológico y para la prevención de infecciones como la COVID-19 (Villapol, 2020). Además, las enfermedades modernas crónico degenerativas como la diabetes mellitus, obesidad, cáncer, hipertensión, enfermedades cardiovasculares, están estrechamente relacionadas con los alimentos que consumimos (Gallo et al, 2020;Grados et al, 2022). Lo anterior posiciona al sector agroalimentario como prioritario y que debemos revalorarlo para mejora la vida.…”

El sector agroalimentario a nivel mundial es el más importante para la reproducción de la vida. Además, la pandemia reciente dejó claro que la mejor forma de resistir, superar y adaptarse a los problemas de salud es mantener una alimentación sana y adecuada. La alimentación en la actualidad proviene de un sector agroalimentario subordinado a un modelo económico y tecnológico. El objetivo de este análisis fue profundizar en comprender la lógica y dinámica actual del sector agroalimentario con el fin de plantear algunas estrategias que permitan mejorar la producción de alimentos. Como primer punto se argumenta sobre la importancia del sector agroalimentario, las tendencias demográficas mundiales y sus necesidades y algunos problemas como el cambio climático y sus efectos. Por otra parte, se desarrolla un análisis sobre la forma como atentamos casi sin control contra la vida y los recursos bajo el modelo de uso vigente; para ello se hace referencia a siete faltas capitales identificadas en el sector agroalimentario. A partir de esta analogía, se plantean algunas alternativas para el futuro del sector agroalimentario de México ante escenarios futuros de cambio climático, desastres naturales, pandemias, conflictos bélicos, e inestabilidad económica, los cuales se considera que serán cada vez más constantes. En principio se plantea fomentar la autosuficiencia alimentaria; cambios en el modelo tecnológico sin dejar de utilizar tecnología moderna; y una profunda reorganización de los sistemas económicos y sociales. Por último, es conveniente mencionar que dicha transformación, no será fácil ni pacífica debido a que prevalecen muchos intereses económicos.
