The INTA Natural Resources Research Center, through the Climate Change Platform, coordinated by Dr. Romina Romaniuk, has made available to the general public a series of videos corresponding to a cycle of Conferences called “The Agricultural Sector against Climate Change” that will be developed virtually in 2020. The work was a cooperation of the Platform together with the Project “Sustainable Intensification of Livestock Systems with Legumes: Cooperation Platform”, financed by Fontagro, Procisur and the Ministry of Primary Production of New Zealand, which is under the coordination of Dr. Alejandro Costantini.
The 6 videos cover the 3 thematic blocks of the conference cycle and can be found on the CIRN YouTube Channel

Finally, from the INTA Climate Change Platform on behalf of Dr. Miguel Taboada and his successor, Dr. Romina Romaniuk, and on behalf of the Legumes Project coordinated by Dr. Alejandro Costantini we want to thank the collaboration received by Dr. Marcelo Beltrán, the Agr. Engineer. Gabriela Pérez, Lic. Mercedes Busto, the CIRN communication team in the person of Valeria Guerra, the PROCADIS platform and Mr. Adriano di Leo Lira who made the links between the participants in times when we could not do anything properly. staff.
The work will be completed with a book, which is in its final editing stage, which expands on most of the topics addressed in the conferences, while adding some others, its authors being mostly participants in the cycle of conferences.
