14ymedio, Havana, 12 January 2016 — Nestled in urban areas,
organopónicos — urban farm plots — are committed to bringing root crops
and other vegetables to the tables of those living farther from
farmland. If the initiative initially offered cheaper prices than other
agricultural markets, currently their directors call for "selling at
prices that support the population, without affecting the need to make
it worthwhile for the producers," a goal that still hasn't stopped working.
