The Secretary of Family Agriculture and Agroecology, Vanderley Ziger, reaffirmed the role of Pronara as a strategic tool in the transformation of the Brazilian countryside.
According to him, the program is the result of more than ten years of social mobilization and represents a civilizational milestone in the construction of contamination-free territories. “We need to create incentives and subsidies so that agroecological communities are recognized and valued by society,” he emphasized.
Public Policies For Agroecology And Reduction Of Pesticides Boost Sustainability In The Field
During the Brazilian Congress of Agroecology 2025, the debate table “The Pronara We Want” brought together the Interministerial Management Committee of the program, researchers, and civil society entities.
Among the central themes were the ban on highly dangerous pesticides, the end of aerial spraying, including by drones, and the creation of Pesticide-Free Zones.
The discussions also emphasized the importance of strengthening social participation and monitoring of the implemented actions.
Within the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Family Agriculture (MDA), Pronara’s actions are focused on agroecological technical assistance, rural credit aimed at ecological transition, and incentives for the use of bioinputs.
These efforts are linked to programs such as Pronaf Agroecology, From Farm to Table, Ecoforte, and Productive Backyards, which together strengthen family production and sociobiodiversity.
The governance of the program, coordinated by the General Secretariat of the Presidency of the Republic, also integrates the ministries of Environment, Health, Development and Social Assistance, and Agriculture.
Organic Production And Environmental Health Strengthen The Pronara And Expand Sustainable Agroecology
Researchers and organizations participating in the Brazilian Congress of Agroecology 2025 highlighted the impacts of intensive pesticide use on public health and ecosystems.
Reports of contamination in agricultural areas reinforced the need to articulate Pronara with the Monitoring System for Populations Exposed to Pesticides (VESPEA), prioritizing environmental recovery and protection of vulnerable communities.
Researcher Leonardo Melgarejo from the Brazilian Association of Agroecology emphasized that the program should integrate science, society, and public policies, focusing on an ecosystemic health that values the diversity of territories and strengthens food sovereignty.
This approach seeks to unite governments, universities, and social movements around a more ethical and sustainable agriculture based on organic production and environmental preservation.

Among the measures discussed are the creation of a label that identifies pesticide-free zones, fiscal incentives for agroecological products, and strengthening sustainable rural credit.
The secretary emphasized that “it is not just about replacing one product with another, but about rebuilding the model of national agricultural production“, advocating for a public policy that values life in the countryside and the health of people during the Brazilian Congress of Agroecology 2025.
