Let us pray for a fairer market share for small family farmers. Let us pray that the dealings between the countryside and the city are assigned the value and dignity they deserve. Let us pray for all the small farmers who with effort, love, and care allow us to have food on the table.

In Colombia, almost 14.8 million people belong to small family farming communities. They represent 43.6% of the national population and are a fundamental part of Colombia’s food sovereignty.
