Plant Breeding, Low Input Biotechnology, Local Innovation and Participatory Research in an Ecological and Sustainable Agriculture Environment (A joint activity of the symposia: Breeding and Conservation of Plant Genetic Resources, Endogenous Development, Local Innovation and Agrarian Extension, and Ecological and Sustainable Agriculture) Exclusive tour to be held on Saturday, November 26 th ; it includes a visit to an Integral Farm in Matanzas and concludes in Varadero Beach. A Farm in which the employment of the Ecological Agriculture and the love to the Nature it mix like a Life Philosophy. Incredible landscapes, crystalline water and white sand: all this and more will find in Varadero, the Cuban most beautiful beach.
