The ANDENES System have many features: Family and Vertical Agriculture, Climate Change Mitigation, vertical and horizontal transportation, food security and storage and mainly a remarkable efficiency of water resources.
What makes the Crops cultivated in Andenes so special and in many cases superior to traditional horizontal agriculture?
Water quality : The ANDENES have been the inspiration of Modern water filters-
Modern solutions have the same basic elements
that allow water to be subsequently filtered in the different height levels of Vertical Family Agriculture.
This is one of the reasons that Customers in
the Famers Markets or Producer- Consumer Fairs prefer vegetables cultivated in
Andenes Scenarios.
In Perú there are in activity 300,000 Has of Family
agriculture in ANDENES and up to 1 Million Has. that could be rehabilitated.
There is a National Crusade that Governmental,
Regional and Municipal Governments along with private Organizations are united
in this cause. .
