The UN, founded in 1945, aims to promote peace, global security, human rights, and sustainable development. Its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 2030) include 17 targets, such as the eradication of poverty, zero hunger, health, education, gender equality, clean water, clean energy, economic growth, and climate action, to be achieved by 2030. Conscious agriculture, aligned with the SDGs, seeks to balance food production with environmental preservation, promoting sustainable practices, reducing environmental impacts, conserving water, ensuring social justice, and animal welfare, thus guaranteeing food security and long-term sustainability.

ACTIVITY PROPOSAL
PLOW TRUCK
The plow is an agricultural tool used to prepare the land for planting. It is designed to cut, lift, and turn the soil, creating furrows where seeds can be planted. The use of the plow helps improve soil structure, control weeds, and incorporate organic matter into the soil, facilitating plant growth. The plow is an essential agricultural tool that, when used sustainably, positively contributes to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for the 2030 Agenda.
