Njengoba umkhakha wezolimo e-France ulungiselela iSalon de l'agriculture yaminyaka yonke e-Paris phakathi nokuqubuka kabusha kokugqugquzelwa kwabalimi nokunganeliseki okukhulayo, ukugqama kuvame ukuphuthelwa ingxenye ebalulekile yezwe lezolimo lase-France—izindawo zaphesheya kwezilwandle. UMEP uMaxette Pirbakas, naye ongumlimi wesizukulwane sesihlanu waseGuadeloupe, usenayo aphakamise izwi ukuqinisekisa ukuthi lezi zifunda azikhohlwa.
Esitatimendeni esinamandla, u-Pirbakas ugqamise izinselelo ezihlukile abalimi ababhekene nazo eminyangweni nasezifundeni zaphesheya kwezilwandle zaseFrance. “Esikhathini lapho sibona ukuvuka kabusha kokugqugquzelwa kwabalimi, ngenxa yokunganeliseki okwandayo ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ngaphambi kokuvulwa kweSalon de l'agriculture eParis; kuyilapho inhlangano yabalimi okwamanje ijabulela ukwesekwa okubalulekile komphakathi; futhi abalimi baqonywa yiwo wonke amaqembu ezombusazwe ukuze bazuze kwezombusazwe; kubalulekile ukuthi singakhohlwa abasebenzi bezolimo ezindaweni zaphesheya kwezilwandle,” kusho uPirbakas.
Ugcizelele izinkinga eziyingqayizivele lezi zindawo ezibhekene nazo, ezehluke kakhulu kulezo ezisezweni. Lokhu kubandakanya ukuncintisana okungalungile, amanani entengo emikhiqizo yezolimo enganele, kanye nokweqisa kwezinkambiso kanye nemikhawulo yokuphatha. Iphuzu elithile elibangwayo imodeli yentengo yomoba eGuadeloupe, osekuyiminyaka engaphezu kwengu-60 ingashintshile, okwenza abalimi bendawo bahlangane.
The ngokwendawo, isimo sezulu, kanye nezomlando imininingwane yalezi zindawo idinga indlela ehambisanayo kwezolimo. Naphezu kwezinselelo ezivamile kuzo zonke lezi zifunda, indawo ngayinye ibhekene nezingqinamba ezihlukile ngenxa yezindawo zayo ezithile, izimo zezulu, nesimo sezulu kanye nemvelo yesifunda.
U-Pirbakas uveze ukusebenza okuningi kwezolimo ezindaweni zaphesheya njengento evamile, ehlanganisa izingxenye zezomnotho, ezemvelo nezenhlalo. Isici esiphawulekayo sezolimo kulezi zifunda ukwanda kwamapulazi amancane namancane kakhulu, noma amapulazi amancane, adlala indima ebalulekile ekuvimbeleni ukufuduka emadolobheni nokugcina imisebenzi yasemaphandleni, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezinamandla amakhulu.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, amapulazi amakhulu, akhiqiza kakhulu kulezi zindawo, ngokuvamile agxile ekuthengiseni amazwe angaphandle njengoshukela nobhanana, abhekana nesethi yawo yezinselelo ezihlukile. Lawa mapulazi, kanye nozakwabo abancane, banegalelo elikhulu emnothweni futhi badlala indima ebalulekile kwezemvelo nenhlalo, ngaphezu kozakwabo basezwenikazi.
Eqokomisa ukuhlukaniswa ngezigaba zokuphatha kwala mapulazi amancane “njengeSmall-Scale Bioeconomic and Agroecological Agricultures” (APEBA), uPirbakas ucele ukuhlanganiswa kwezinqubo ezigcina amanzi nomhlabathi, kulungiswe kabusha izinhlelo zokunisela, futhi kubuyekeze izinqubomgomo zezolimo zomphakathi kanye nezinkambiso zamanani. ukulinganisa inkundla nezimbangi eziqondile ezingabhekani nezibopho ezifanayo.
Ngenxa yesimo semvelo esintekenteke ezindaweni zaphesheya kwezilwandle, kunesidingo esiphuthumayo sokulinganisa ukukhiqizwa kwezolimo nenhlonipho yemvelo. Lokhu kubandakanya ukubhekana nezinselelo ezifana nokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu, lezi zindawo ezibhekene nazo kakhulu kunezwekazi.
Ibhekisela embikweni weSenethi ka-2016 onesihloko esithi “Ezolimo Ezindaweni Zaphesheya kwezilwandle: Alikho Ikusasa Ngaphandle Kokujwayela Uhlaka Olujwayelekile,” u-Pirbakas ubuze ukuthi iziphathimandla zikahulumeni zenzeni kusukela lo mbiko wokwenza ngcono isimo kubalimi baphesheya kwezilwandle. Unxuse iziphathimandla zedolobha elikhulu nezinyunyana ukuthi zingabashayi indiva ozakwabo baphesheya kwezilwandle ezingxoxweni nasezingxoxweni. “Kufanele simelwe futhi sizwe,” U-Pirbakas waphetha, egcizelela isidingo sendlela ebumbene yokubhekana nezinselele ezithile zezolimo ezindaweni zaphesheya kwezilwandle zaseFrance.
