At the Aapresid Congress, Nicolas Bronzovich, president of FONTAGRO, had the honor of presenting a plaque to Manuel Otero, Director General of Instituto Interamericano de Cooperación para la Agricultura (IICA). This distinction, on behalf of the FONTAGRO Board of Directors, is a deserved recognition of his invaluable work and commitment to the development of agri-food systems in Latin America and the Caribbean.

The continuous support of hashtag#IICA to hashtag#FONTAGRO, under Manuel Otero's leadership, has been fundamental in promoting initiatives that foster innovation and sustainability in the agricultural sector.

The Aapresid Congress has established itself as a key international event for over three decades, connecting innovation, technology, and knowledge to create increasingly sustainable production systems. This year, Otero shared his vision on "The Future of Latin America and the Caribbean: Building a New Narrative for Agriculture," setting a direction for the future of agriculture in LAC and the world.

His leadership and dedication have left a significant mark on FONTAGRO's mission.
